Once a month, Los Angeles County residents and visitors have the opportunity to stroll through Coldwater Canyon Park located on the ridgeline between Studio City and Beverly Hills and view the beauty of the city in a rural setting.  For just five dollars, people of all ages and skill levels can walk along a choice of three different trails:  a kids hike for those who just want to enjoy the scenery, a medium hike for the average hike and an advanced hike for those who wish to challenge themselves with an hour long hike up and down the side of the mountain.

Photo taken by Julie Moree, each month residents can hike up the mountain and howl at the moon.

All hikes are under the supervision of a trained associate of TreePeople, an organization celebrating 40 years of its work and dedication to preserving the environment through education and restoration of the parks and recreation.
