HOLLYWOOD, California – Nestled in one of Los Angeles County’s most picturesque settings, Griffith Park has been synonymous with Hollywood since its institution of Griffith Observatory in 1935 and the Mount Hollywood, which is by far the most popular hiking trail in all of Griffith Park. One of the reasons for its popularity is the access to a million dollar view of Los Angeles, including the Pacific Ocean and eastern San Fernando Valley.
Headline Celebrity Emmanuel “Manny” Pacquiao chooses Griffith Park for his pre-fight outdoor exercises. The famous Mount Hollywood Hiking Trail has an elevation of 1,626 feet but considerably yields a consistent elevation of ten to forty-five degrees. The distance round trip from Fern Dell trail is 5 miles, from the Charlie Turner Trailhead at the Observatory the distance is 2.5 miles round trip.
