Hike 5 miles into the backcountry of the north Santa Susana Mountains. Hike is moderately difficult. Trail is a lollipop route, with 1200 feet of elevation gain. Parking is $5, or if you park outside the park gates, parking is free. Parking for free adds a half mile to the hike, each way. More details https://mrca.ca.gov/parks/park-listing/mentryville/ From modern hiker https://modernhiker.com/hike/hike-mentryville-park/ in 1995, more than 3,000 acres of land was transferred from the oil company (now Chevron USA) to the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority, which now operates Mentryville Park. For more on the history of Mentryville, please see this excellent description from the Friends of Mentryville. For those interested in the history of the park, interpretive tours are held on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of every month from 12-4PM. https://scvhistory.com/mentryville/mstory.htm
