Goat Peak (elevation 1,729) is a prominent summit on a sharp ridge between Temescal Canyon and Rivas Canyon in the Santa Monica Mountains. Although this peak is relatively unpopular, at least in comparison to some of the other bustling mountains north of LA, it is a fantastic summit on challenging, but well-maintained trails that rewards you with stunning views of the ocean on clear days.

Magical hiking. Not for beginners or weak of heart. Very difficult returning, no traffic and through downhills, will have dust, stones and flora… you will enjoy nature and yourself !!!
