Advanced Hiking Los Angeles

Perfect Weather Hike in Griffith Park! ☀️🙋🏻‍♀️ 🙋 🙋🏽‍♂️

Come join the Perfect Weather Hike in Griffith Park every Saturday (location or route varies). Join us on this friendly social hike, with optional plank challenge at the helipad. Followed by optional lunch at the Village Bakery and cafe. 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... Moderate pace with Tiffany on the main fire roads or faster pace on advanced inclines with Marvin and Gary. Route varies: Cadman trail to 5-Points, Beacon Hill, Helipad, Glendale Peak, often Cedar Grove and back to the cars. Steady incline approx 700ft elevation gain in the first hour - challenging for beginners but worth it! We’ll gather at each split in the trail to make sure all are accounted for. Dog friendly 🐕. Just remember there are coyotes in the park. Rattlesnake season! 🐍 They like to sun on the trails. Do not approach and steer clear if any are on the path. Meet after at Village Bakery and Cafe 3119 Los Feliz Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90039 Like all meetups, hike at your own risk. You are responsible for your own well-being. Please bring water, wear sunscreen and proper shoes. Facebook group https://m.facebook.com/groups/1608982546701615/?ref=share&mibextid=S66gvF This is a residential neighborhood. There is NO restroom on this hike. The nearest is at the Griffith park Southern Railway by the Griffith Park Cafe on Crystal Springs Drive. If you arrive early, It’s a 15 minute roundtrip walk to the restroom. Hike will be cancelled in the event of rain and soggy trails or severe heat advisories.

Beaudry Loop Hike (Glendale) Level: Moderate+

Come join us for one of our favorite local mountain hikes: the Beaudry Loop, starting in Glendale! This beautiful trail is one of the highest rated hikes on AllTrails. We will take the steeper South route with panoramic views of the city up to the double peaks: Mount Thom and Tongva. At Tongva, next to the radio towers, there is a nice lookout point where we will stop to re-group, to enjoy the views, and to have a snack break for about 10 minutes. After that we will take the shadier, tree-lined North route down. The path is a wide fire road making socializing easy. **LEVEL**: Intermediate Plus for speed. The incline going clockwise is somewhat steep, but not extreme. We are a friendly group that loves to socialize and encourages newcomers, but please note that moderate+ level of cardio fitness and walking speed are required. **LENGTH**: 5.9 miles, 1500 ft elevation gain. +/-2 1/4h moving time. **SPEED**: c. 21-22 min/mile going up. This is faster than most moderate hikes, but below advanced ones. We will make several one minute stops going up. The plan is to stay together as a group, but people tend to break off a bit and there is no sweep. If you do end up taking longer than the main group where I will be, no problem, just meet us at the lookout point and we'll all come down together. The route doesn't have many turns, see map in the pictures. **BRING**: Hiking shoes and water. Snack, if you wish. Poles are not needed unless you have a preference to have them on moderate hikes. **DOGS**: I allow well-behaved, strong dogs, but the area has a lot of coyotes, so you take all responsibility for them! Please note that we do not wait for dogs. **MEETING POINT:** We meet for introductions at 8.30am and we take off at 8.35am sharp. (If you are late and attempt to catch us we are taking the South route (stay left) at the split c. 1/4 mile from the start, map is posted) **ALERT**: Don't fully trust the Meetup GPS link. On rare occasions, depending on your phone and app, it can lead people slightly off! **RESTROOMS**: none. **PARKING**: Street parking in a residential neighborhood. Parking is usually pretty easy. There is additional parking on J Lee Circle, if needed. **LIABILITY**: The organizer is an untrained and unpaid volunteer. By joining this event each member accepts full responsibility for knowing their limits, for injuries and health issues, for material losses, assessing all risks and for getting lost. Each member shall make their guests aware of these policies, also, and release the host from all liability.

There are restrictions. A dog-friendly hike. DIRECTIONS: (In case your GPS fails you) We are going to Manderville Canyon. Turn on Manderville Canyon Road off of Sunset Blvd. Go left at Westridge Road. Go left at Bayliss Road. (This is where you will most likely park) Walk to Queensferry Road (Good luck finding parking here) WHAT TO BRING: Water Hiking shoes Good mood WHERE: We will meet near the trailhead on Queensferry Road (which is a short one-block street).

Griffith Park Hike to Cedar Grove

This hike is 4.6 miles/1224 ft ascent is known to the regulars as the "backyard hike" and it is NOT a Beginner Hike. Most of the elevation gain is in a short period of time. The trail on the steep ascent is hard to find, so a little bit of adventure is required for this hike. This hike is 120 minutes and NO ANIMALS ALLOWED Legend for hikes: These hikes run year 'round every Tuesday. In the leader's (subjective) mind, the hikes are generally easiest the first Tuesday of the month and most challenging the last Tuesday of the month, with everything progressive in between. Beginners are encouraged to come to the first Tuesday of the month. Beginners will receive doses of encouragement the second Tuesday of the month to keep up if unable. The 3-4-5 Tuesday's of the month it is expected anyone that can't keep up with the leader will turn back The fine print: Wildlife (snakes, bobcats, mountain lions etc) seen in the park, be aware of your surroundings and stay alert at all times. Bring Along: Hiking boots and at least 1 Liter Water. Layered clothing in case it's cold. Long pants in case it's hot, to prevent being bitten by insects. Mosquito and tic spray (available at REI) are recommended. No bright (white) flashlights. Red, Blue flashlights are OK. If you get to the lot after we meet, Sierra Club hikes start at 7:00PM on the opposite end of the lot. We do start ON TIME, no matter how much traffic is on the freeways, inside the park, including if our parking lots are being used by movie crews. Allow yourself enough time for any unexpected surprises. From 134 Freeway: (Note, if you are not familiar with Griffith Park Drive, this is a dark single lane route. You are better off taking I5 directions) Exit Forest Lawn. (If coming from Westbound go straight, from Eastbound, Go Right). Make a left on Zoo Drive. Make a right hand turn on Griffith Park Drive. Road weaves through Griffith Park. Continue on road until you hit Crystal Springs Road. Make a right hand turn on Crystal Springs. There's no street sign at the next stop sign. Look for the sign in the median stating "Merry-Go-Round Parking" with an arrow, follow the arrow. Continue up the road. The road forces you to make a sharp right hand turn into a parking lot, this is Lot 1. Go through the parking lot. You'll hit a small dark road (it's lit if it's daylight savings time) which will take you to Parking Lot 2. This is the parking lot where we meet. We meet next to the driveway that takes you down to parking Lot 3. From Interstate 5 (either direction) Go West on Los Feliz. Make a right on Riverside drive into Griffith Park. Go two stop signs and make a left turn. Continue up the road. The road forces you to make a sharp right hand turn into a parking lot. Go through the parking lot. You'll hit a small dark road (it's lit if it's daylight savings time) for a short period of time, followed by a brightly lit lot. Park in the back of the lot (the part you entered in). Meet at the back of the lot, where the driveway to the lower part of the lot is. It's close to the "No Practice Driving Allowed" sign is. Where to meet: If you know the park well, it is Merry Go Round Lot #2, just at the path to the lower lot.
