Eaton Canyon image

Eaton Canyon
Hiking area
👍 Popular hike. Easy trail to begin with but half way through, gets more technical in footing as you have to cross the stream. The popularity makes this more challenging since you have to wait for people to finish crossing. Destination and journey are beautiful though.

Meyberg Waterfall image

Meyberg Waterfall
Tourist attraction
👍👍 The Meyberg Waterfall is inside of the LA Arboretum. Thus it’s hours would be the same of the LA Arboretum and it requires a ticket to enter. You can hike to the top of the waterfall, on a paved pathway with stairs or on a dirt trail. The view from the top and bottom are both really cool. So many p...

Lower Arroyo Park
Park
👍 Came here on a Sunday morning as wanted to walk the trail to the Rose Bowl. Very narrow driveway to a small parking lot, but there was plenty of parking. Majority of people were heading to the archery area and I was the only one heading to the trails. It wasn't clear which side of the stream to w...

El Prieto Canyon

👍👍 This is saying El Prieto I know it as Brown Mountain Dam. Easy hike it just takes a long time to get there 🤷‍♀️🤣 It's worth it! So much beauty on the way there. I'd suggest you go early it gets hot. Bring plenty of water for you and your fur baby. Mama Keira Loved it 🥰😍

Emerald Isle Park

👍 This is a nice out of the way park. It’s a neighborhood park with tennis courts, play structures, open space and trees. It’s out of the way and it’s probably pretty much used by the neighborhood but it’s still nice.

First Water, Mt. Wilson Trail
Hiking area
👍👍 Parked in the residential area near trail park (public restrooms, playground) and walked up to the beginning of the trail. It is a popular hike even at 6:00 a.m. on a Saturday. It took us 2 hours roundtrip to First water. It is steep at times and narrow trails at times, but it's worth it!!! There wa...

Brown Mountain Dam image

Brown Mountain Dam
Historical landmark
👍👍 This isn't a difficult hike but definitely worth it . It's about 8 - 9 miles round trip. Definitely needs to be done in the morning before the heat. We started at about 1:30 pm, but we did get a fairly good amount of shade. There's one location at the campsite with a bathroom. There's poison...

Ma Durga Temple
Hindu temple
😐 I never thought I would leave this temple an average rating. Temple means divinity. Just maintaining a place clean and neat is not enough for temples. I used to visit this temple 2009 to 2014 almost every week. I then moved out and now living far. Recently visited while driving on the way and took e...

👍👍 A pocketful of miracle! Blink and you'll miss this hidden pocket of magic and wilderness. And if you don't mind sharing a cosmically-connected stone circle with a bunch of furry little critters, this sliver of the Arroyo Seco is definitely not to be missed!
