The Hollywood Sign Walk Full of Laughter
Los Angeles · An Express walk with stories and photo stops
On Hollywood Hikes’ Express walk, Hollywood stories and jokes keep you company on the way up, with a dog along for the outing and stops to photograph the sign. I’d book it with a friend: let the guide help with the pictures so you can both be in the frame.
This English-language group walk in Griffith Park takes about 75 minutes, with up to 30 guests. The 1.7-mile return route reaches a viewpoint in front of the Hollywood Sign; the summit hike is a separate, longer tour.

One guest singled out the pictures:
“The highlight was Jon's skills with taking our pictures with the sign behind us. So much better than a selfie!”
