Overview
Mt Wilson Trail proves to be a challenging yet rewarding hike close to the LA metro area. The elevation rises rapidly which yields some great views of the city.
Getting Started
The trail head was easy to find with street parking available, but you might have to park a street or two away due to the trail system’s popularity. There are plenty of trails to explore so plan your timing accordingly.
Taking Children
Take caution when hiking with children or pets - it is very doable but some sections of the trail are narrow.
This is an alternate route for Lookout Point via Mount Wilson Trail.
