13 Best Hikes in Los Angeles | Condé Nast Traveler

"The vibe is oh-so-Hollywood, with shirtless model bros and blondes in yoga pants with tiny dogs. There are two hiking routes, the longer of which is a real workout. Those guys definitely earned their abs. Runyon is beyond simple to navigate. You may need to take a few breathers on the ascent, to catch your breath and to take selfies at the vantage points throughout (both are necessary). This is perfect for the traveler who doesn't want to stray far from the city for beautiful views or for a quick workout." - Maxwell Williams, Krista Simmons
