    Tips

    Signposted as Mt Allen, Sandstone is the highest peak in the Santa Monica Mountains, with a great 360-degree-overlook at an elevation of 3,114 feet (949 m). You can reach this point from Yerba Buena Road over a pleasant loop hike on Backbone Trail. The trail lines up nicely the highest peaks on this frontline range of the coastal mountains.

      Super nice view all over the land with some possibilities to explore and meditate.

        Sandstone peak is the highest point of the Santa Monica mountains! And its very accessible. When parking at the lot by the trailhead the whole hike up and down took us around 1hr 30 min. There is NO shade though and it can be real hot climb!
