Hiking on Wonder View Trail

The other day, some of my friends and I went hiking on Wonder View Trail. It was my first time to go hiking in Los Angeles so I was quite excited!

Can you see Downtown LA behind the hill?

We parked a car near the place called Wonder View Trail Head and walked up the hill.

It was a bit rougher and steeper with sandy and rocky trails than I had expected, and the sun was so strong that I couldn’t stop sweating the whole time.

However, the view was amazing and the higher we walked up, the cooler it became and the breeze was very nice and refreshing!

This is facing North Hollywood.

It took about 45 minutes to reach the top where there is a tree called Wisdom Tree. We took a break for a while and walked down the same path.

From where we walked, we only could see a part of Hollywood Sign from behind. To see the compete Hollywood sign, it’s better to go to Griffith Observatory.
