Ladder to the Trail

Highlight • Structure

This ladder looks suspicious but leads apparently to the trail ahead. It’s quite thrilling when one hears the buzzing of the electricity.

This is one of the best places for views in the park and there are considerably less people here than the Hollywood Sign Hike and Griffith Observatory. Sunrise or sunset views from here are highly recommended.
