A must-visit for views, nature, and a breath of fresh air.

Be sure to bring water, and don't miss Trails Cafe (at the bottom in Griffith Park) for their famous cheddar/chive biscuits, muffins, egg salad sandwiches, Snake Dogs, coffee, teas, juices, and more... all baked fresh daily (vegan and gluten-free options available at this cafe, too).
