Perfect Weather Halloween Hike in Griffith Park! 👻🎃🧛‍♀️

Join us every Saturday on this friendly social hike, with optional plank challenge at the vista viewpoint / helipad. Followed by optional breakfast/lunch at the Village Bakery and Cafe.

For this week’s Halloween hike 👻🎃🧛‍♀️we will do the hike in reverse. From the meeting point we will start with a 20-30 minute urban hike up the hill, through the neighborhood past the Disney house and Halloween decor to the Commonwealth park entrance, then up the paved fire road past the Cedar Grove and water tank, to the Vista Point with 180 views of the ocean through downtown and optional plank challenge, onto fire roads, an option to 360 views at Glendale Peak, then return via 5-points, Beacon Hill with views of Burbank and Glendale and down Cadman Trail to our starting point.

We will give a 5-minute grace period for arrival for introductions.

Trail Is a roughly a 4.5 mile 10,000 step loop on mostly fire roads. Distance varies depending on trail variations. We’ll have views across the city to the Pacific Ocean, Griffith Observatory, downtown LA. As well as North East over Burbank and Glendale

Steady incline approx 900ft elevation gain. We’ll gather at each split in the trail to make sure all are accounted for.

Dog friendly 🐕. Just remember there are coyotes and rattlesnakes (summer) in the park.

Meet afterwards at Village Bakery and Cafe
3119 Los Feliz Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90039
