Time to hike to the Hollywood sign!
We’ll make two stops: a viewpoint/photo op of the Hollywood Sign from below, then continue on to the overlook above the back side of the Hollywood Sign.
This is a residential area with Limited Parking. Park on residential streets and meet at the Innsdale trailhead where Canyon Lake Dr & Innsdale Dr meet and end. There are typically a couple of fruit vendor carts as well as a hiking tour group gathering. We will most likely be the larger group. Some hikers or GPSs get lost and end up going past the trail. Check the map first do you know where to go.
The hike to the sign is a similar distance and incline as our usual 2-hour 4-mile 750ft climb. With similar wide dirt trails and a small dip into the neighborhood to continue the trail. It is a busy trail with various groups and hikers on the trail
