EVENT:
This hike will give participants an opportunity to visit two special parks, enjoy some moderate hiking with spectacular views of Los Angeles from the mountains to ocean, and gather back for lunch somewhere near Stoneview and the Culver Steps (location tbd).
Our hike will begin with a walk around the habitat gardens as we learn about the Nature Center.
We will then hike up the hill to the State of California's Baldwin Hills Overlook Visitors Center to learn about the natural and cultural heritage of Los Angeles before heading down the hill to start on the main hiking trail, which is steep and winds up one mile from the park entrance at Jefferson Blvd. to the Scenic Overlook.
The trail zig zags around a very steep and straight staircase which visitors can also access. The path is very pretty with grassland, native plants and trees, and cheerful birds to watch.
