Travel Town Railroad

Hollyridge Trail is one of many routes in Griffith Park that lead to the famous Hollywood sign. Hike this 3.5-mile trek to the peak of Mount Lee with your favorite animal buddy for stunning views of the sign and the city below.

You and your leashed pet can trek the Griffith Observatory Loop from Griffith Park to get even closer to the renowned Hollywood sign than Lake Hollywood Park. This climb is popular with visitors and locals alike because it offers spectacular views of the Hollywood sign and the LA Basin. Bronson Canyon in Griffith Park is a 6.5-mile, 3-hour hike. Because the dog-friendly walk is primarily along fire roads that aren't well-marked, it's a good idea to study a map ahead of time.

Bring Petzooie to this unique Griffith Park attraction for a picnic or some games in the nearby grassy area. Before the zoo moved to its current location, the Old Zoo Picnic Area was home to the former LA Zoo. The decommissioned zoo has recently been transformed into a picnic park complete with historic animal cages and exhibits.

On this 6.5-mile track, you may hike with your dog to the Hollywood sign. This walk passes through Griffith Park and ascends Mount Lee, offering spectacular views of the iconic sign and the city below.

Depending on your trekking aptitude, you and Petzooie can hike 1.7 to 4-miles round trip to Bee Rock, a hive-shaped point on the east edge of Griffith Park. The short and steep Bee Rock Trail or the less steep Bill Eckert Trail can be used to get to Bee Rock. Visit the webpage for more trail and hiking information.

If you and your dog need a break from hiking in Griffith Park, stop at Amir's Garden, where you may relax while admiring an ornamental garden. Parking at the Mineral Wells picnic area and going up the fire road for about 1/2 mile will lead you to Amir's Garden. At the midway mark, you'll pass Water Tank 73, and Amir's Garden lies on the next significant switchback. While on the paths, please keep Petzooie on a leash.
