Where would you take someone who thinks they’ve already seen LA?

I would take her on a nice hike, maybe a hike most Angelenos don’t even know about. We talked about them in another thread.

That way you might experience something new as well. Win-win situation.

What are the best quiet hikes with views in Los Angeles that aren’t crowded on weekends?

Hey guys, I love hiking around LA, but some of the popular trails get way too crowded on weekends. So I am looking for somewhere a little quieter where you can still get a great view of the city, mountains, or ocean. I don’t mind driving a bit if the trail is worth it. Are you willing to share your secret spots?
