Shall we start with the vistas? From every imaginable angle, there are views of the city, or the hills off in the distance, or even Glendale (our neighbor to the immediate east). Below is a view looking east of downtown LA...
Sometimes the best view is the park itself... like watching hikers crossing a bridge to get to the other side, or catching a glimpse of the sun setting off in the west...
And sometimes, even the destruction wrought by the last fire can create a beautiful monument to nature's enduring flexibility... and multitudes of trails crisscross throughout the over 4,000 acres of rugged parkland.
Even as the LA budget continues to shrink, Griffith Park continues to captivate. Next time you're in the area, check it out. Whichever way you decide to walk, you will not regret your choice! Trust me!
