    Ive been coming since the 70s. I've seen the changes and I like them. There used to be lots of drugs and alcohol going on. It was dangerous and scary sometimes, gang violence and killing. It's all cleaned up now and it's a whole new atmosphere. I got some great pictures last time I was there. .

    This was a very fun pirate park. No charge & lots of fun. My Grandson had a great time. A great place to have a party. The jungle gym is a giant pirate boat. There are a lots of great things there for the kids to play with. This is definitely a fun place to visit. It's right next to The Rose Bowl Aquatics Center.

    So much fun to come and play a short game of mini golf with the kids and their friends. Each person (adult or kid) was $6 for a 9 hole mini putt putt game. Worth it to watch them have fun. It was cool too because you could by an adult beverage in a plastic cup to enjoy along the way! Looking for something to do for about an hour, I can't think of a better way to spend the time!

    Awesome open space right beside the rose bowl. Good for either a music festival or golf. Staff are nice and chill. Could use a bit more trees for shade though.

    Nice little park hidden off the freeway. I only go there for the dog park and tennis court

    This section of the greater Arroyo Seco park is shaded in part and allows access to the arroyo itself. The botanical garden area is informative. There are plenty of places to kick back and relax, and also a section popular with skateboarders. Enjoy!

    Nice park tucked against a stable with horses, chickens and a big red barn. Cool place near a walking path or bike trail that parallels the Arroyo wash. Wonderful place to exercise or walk your pets.

    Are we in LA ? No way, it can't be!! As if you are in Indonesian jungle or south American forest. I sat down and enjoyed the sceneries. Bring your dog and go for a hike you won't forget it

    Arroyo Seco is a gorgeous location! I personally only go during the Arroyo Seco Weekend Music Festival in June. The grounds are well maintained and the roads in and out are designed very well for high traffic. The event i go to is super organized and I don’t think it would be the same without Arroyo Seco.

    Beautiful space, and cool venue for large shows. Unfortunately, large shows mean lots and lots of the general public. The general public don't know how to behave themselves when out in these spaces. They drink too much, and don't take care of themselves or anyone around them.

  • 5/5 Carmichael C. 4 years ago on Google • 53 reviews
    This is my go-to running park. It's safe, lots of law enforcement, bike and jogging paths galore, if you just wanna relax, hang out for a picnic or read a book by a tree, that's fine too! I'm there every week! Lastly, this is one of the few places in Pasadena where you can fly a drone legally (in Lot H). And oh, the legendary Rose Bowl Stadium is also in the area.

  • 4/5 Sanfrancisco K. 3 years ago on Google
    The park had a natural growth of vegetation. It's got it's own beauty. I liked many benches but I have never sat on them before COVID19.

  • 4/5 Lucas N. 3 years ago on Google
    So many fun things to look at here. It's a great place to go with your family . We love the Japanese tea garden and the California Academy of Sciences. There are many other attractions that you can enjoy, it's just a great place to spend the day.

    After looking for spots to workout during quarantine..this hiking spot is pretty good. Street parking can be difficult to find but once you do, it's a nice hike to the top. The trail is paved and there are water fountains available all the way to the top. A lot of people bring their dogs as well as they can be put off leash. At the top, you can see great views of the Hollywood sign and skyscrapers in cA. Some trails are currently closed with the quarantine situation.

  • 5/5 Chatina C. 3 years ago on Google
    Loved it, nice small course. Very friendly staff. 9 holes very challenging.

  • 5/5 Ron V. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Frances W. 3 years ago on Google
    Great hiking spot! Good uphill climb to get that cardio in! Great view on the cities and also the Hollywood sign. Not much shade so bring water! Dogs are allowed on leashes. Lots of pups!!

  • 5/5 Robert N. 2 years ago on Google
    Really beautiful park right across the street from the rosebowl. Nice playgrounds, lots of shade and places to sit and eat.

  • 5/5 AC 2 years ago on Google
    Such a beautiful park, but it was so disheartening to see it used as a parking lot for the Americafest! Although I understand the reason. Such a perfect spot for a 4th of July picnic and a wonderful place for kids to just run around!!!

  • 4/5 Zer01FAQ 2 years ago on Google
    Cool spot people super friendly haven't met a bad doggie yet, don't go at dark or dusk as no light is available. Looks as tho someone set up a solar powered light but it's not working ☹. Anyways check it good mix of different size and breeds of dogs

  • 5/5 Jonathan A. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful gem of a park hidden deep in the beautiful san marino county neighborhood. Great place for a group gathering or just to chill with friends. There’s also a dog park nearby!

  • 4/5 Stewart S. 3 years ago on Google
    Most beautiful view of the GG Bridge! Nice hiking trails..you can bring your dog along...moderately easy with some steep climbing. Strong winds channeling through a few spots...fun way to get your exercise for the day!

  • 3/5 Randy H. 3 years ago on Google
    I love these houses! It symbolizes CA! Its a good spot to visit on a sunny day in town.. you can have a picnic in the park with the view of the painted ladies..

  • 5/5 andrew h. 1 year ago on Google
    They have had music festivals the past 2 weekends and the place just looks magical with all the different colored lights.

  • 5/5 Victoria G. 1 year ago on Google
    First time there. Loved it! Absolutely amazing! Very clean and everyone was nice!

  • 3/5 Elizabeth E. 3 years ago on Google
    When I moved from Colorado to Hollywood after the 2000 Olympics with my Rottweiler Milo it was a saving grace to bridge the gap of outdoor living to city living. Runyon was right down the street from my house and I was able to hike with my dog every day...to have such an amazing park in the hills in the city with such amazing views was a godsend!!!

  • 3/5 Rachel M. 3 years ago on Google
    Great hiking canyon for all types. The area is pretty busy with people, so seems like a safe space to hike with or without your dog. You can unleash dogs after you enter the park and pass the yoga lawn.

    Nice park for tall gate party

  • 3/5 Bruce M. 9 months ago on Google • 6 reviews
    Nice green space; lots of traffic noise. NO WATER anywhere near kid park; Yes! Shaded areas for car but most in fire lanes. No handicap bathrooms; no bathroom stall locks: last redone sometime in the 1940s - place needs a lot of work.

  • 5/5 Manny M. 7 months ago on Google
    nice new Play ground, well kept tennis courts, bathrooms need to be updated.

  • 5/5 Mario R. 3 years ago on Google
    Great greens. Great range. 5 out 5 experience

  • 4/5 jose R. 3 years ago on Google
    You can go and play soccer or baseball or get the trail to the rose bowl

  • 3/5 Milharte W. 3 years ago on Google
    Full House! Great for tourist photos and a must visit if you've never been here. Been here a couple of times for french meetups, but my only gripe is that the grass is a little dirty and trash is present.

  • 4/5 Stella B. 3 years ago on Google
    I loved the playground in Hermon Park as a kid You know when Kids actually played outside.. instead of playing video games all damn day My cousins and I would stay in tha park on those giant slides some times pushing our luck because we had to be home b4 the streetlights came on Back then all you were waiting for was daylight savings time

  • 4/5 Mr J. 3 years ago on Google
    A little overrated in my opinion, but they do have tennis courts, paddle boats, the tea garden, and live bison. Wait, this place rocks, except for the hippies.

  • 3/5 Christopher C. 3 years ago on Google
    Be careful around this park I found discarded syringes in the parking lot and a used condom on the ground where the kids play. On a positive note the place looks to be well manicured.

  • 1/5 Troy S. 3 years ago on Google
    Playground fenced off. Ground squirrel holes everywhere, watch out for sprained ankles. At least the bathroom had soap

  • 4/5 John M. 3 years ago on Google
    I love this park! There is so much to explore, and it's really great for everyone from kids to adults and dogs! If you are just visiting there is always something to do at the park!

  • 5/5 Kimberly G. 3 years ago on Google
    Great clean park for the kids. Plenty of parking. Love that its kind of hidden yet you can't miss it.

  • 4/5 Mark W. 3 years ago on Google
    Always a great time for you and your family.

  • 4/5 James B. 3 years ago on Google
    I don't think I'll ever be able to fully explore what this park has to offer.

  • 4/5 David F. 3 years ago on Google
    Excellent old neighborhood park. A recent facelift gives this park so much beauty you'll forget while you sat there for hours just staring at the views. Also, a great place for watching meteor showers in the middle of the light-polluted city.

  • 5/5 Rosa H. 3 years ago on Google
