Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook, Kenneth Hahn Park and a tour of Culver City

This hike will have 2 different parts, each about 3.75 miles long. Participants can join for either half or for the entire route. In part 1 we will go up the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook (BHSO) but not via the stairs. Then down a dirt trail to cross the pedestrian bridge at La Cienega and make a short loop up into Kenneth Hahn Park before returning to Jefferson at the bottom of the BHSO.

But wait there's more! Part 2 will be a tour of cultural and historic Culver City, including the Hayden Tract (pictured), the historic Culver Hotel, the new Culver Steps development (aka, Culver City's town square), Hobbit Houses (really!), and lots of interesting public art. This will be about 3.75 miles of flat walking. We will return back to where we started at Duquesne and Jefferson.
