Santa Monica, United States of America
Topanga State Park

A mountain trail immersed in a city, you are sure to be feel as if you are no longer in the city.

Trails roaming and rolling all over the Santa Monica Mountains, Topanga State Park is the largest park located in the city. With over 60 entrances located all around the park, they welcome not just hikers, but mountain bikers and even horseback riders!


With plenty of trails to choose from, which should you choose? Well, to start off, most trails start from the Trippet Ranch, taking your pick from the many vantage points that offer stunning views. Offering one of the best views that the park has to offer, head up to Eagle Rock perhaps by Musch Trail. As you arrive at the 1957 feet summit, check out the view of the gorgeous ocean. Surrounded by sandstone with holes, they closely resemble swiss-cheese! Now how’s that for making you hungry after a tiring walk! Elaborating on just one of the popular trails, visitors can even opt to go to the nearby Parker Mesa Overlook, offering views of the Topanga Canyon. Known to be the best place to enjoy a sunset, get ready for the glorious rays of warm sunlight to hit you, as they bathe the park in an ethereal glow. Catering to all sorts of seasons and climbers, there is even the San Ynez Falls, perfect for the rainy season. Truly a jack of all trades, this park is a fun-filled, action-packed place, ready for anyone to indulge in.
