Tucked in the Santa Monica Mountains near Agoura Hills, Malibou Lake is a private reservoir surrounded by rustic homes and hillsides dotted with oak trees. Created in 1922, the Medea and Triunfo creeks feed the reservoir, which sits adjacent to Malibu Creek State Park. The lake has a long history as a Hollywood filming location, most notably Frankenstein (1931)—the iconic scene of the monster and a little girl.

The Will Rogers Historic Stable was at the center of this historic ranch’s equestrian life. Up to 30 horses lived, trained, and rested there. Riders would gather in the large rotunda to saddle up, and polo horses were cared for and turned out after matches. Will Rogers even built a hidden staircase to access it unnoticed and wrote about how his horses lived better than he did.

San Vicente Mountain Park, located 2.7 miles west of the 405 freeway on an unpaved section of Mulholland Drive, has awesome 360-degree views and access to extensive hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian trails. The 10.2-acre park has public picnic areas, bathrooms, and is a gateway to Westridge Canyonback Park and the 20,000-acre “Big Wild” wilderness area. A short walk along a wide dirt road leads visitors to this historic site, which once housed a Nike-Ajax missile radar station during the Cold War (1956–1968). The original radar tower now provides panoramic views of the Santa Monica Mountains, Encino Reservoir, San Fernando Valley, and Los Angeles Basin, making it one of the best spots in the region to watch a sunset.
