Hollywood Sign - Hollywood Reservoir Loop Ride

Hooray for Hollywood! There is only one legal way to bike to the Hollywood sign and that's the way we will take. But that's not all...

Our all-road loop starts and ends at the Fern Dell Nature Museum in the Hollywood Hills. We'll ride west across Hollywood, mostly on Franklin Ave and Yucca St, until we hook up with Nicholas Canyon Rd.

Nicholas Canyon Rd will take us to Mulholland Dr, then across the 101 to the Hollywood Reservoir. After a loop around the reservoir we'll ride up and through the Lake Hollywood neighborhood where we connect with Mt Lee Dr.

Mt Lee Dr takes us to Mt Lee, the site of the Hollywood Sign. Bring a picnic lunch with items to share at the sign.

We return by way of Beachwood Dr, Canyon Dr and other streets in the Hollywood Hills. We'll finish by walking our bikes along a quarter-mile footpath through the Fern Dell Nature Museum

Ride will be about 19 mi with 2,400 ft elev gain
