Thanks brother! This seems fantastic. Other videos I saw on hiking up to the sign featured pretty daunting trails. This seems just perfect! Saving it for when I need it :)
someone needs to make a video on parking tips on Ledgewood st... ive driven that neighborhood plenty of times and there are NO places to park. Every inch is marked with No Parking signs, local neighborhood permit only
Hey Dr! Great video. Is this route still available now? Ill be there in 2023 March! also will not be driving so probably gonna get an uber to drop us off at the gate!
Unfortunately I am not sure. It is unpredictable at this moment. Check for latest posts on instagram is one way to find out. I hope you have fun and stay safe!
Hello, thanks for the question! From what I’ve been told as long as you don’t obstruct their driveways, park in restricted areas, or be disruptive, then you should be fine. You won’t be crossing anyone’s property.
@@ArsalanAspires omg thank you so much for replying!!! but i just read this: Bad News: The Hollyridge Trailhead was closed to the public in April of 2017. Brush Canyon Trail to Mount Lee is the suggested alternative to hike to the Hollywood Sign. The directions from Hollyridge Trail will remain on this site, should the trailhead be reopened. (Yes, it should!). do you know if this is true? is that the trail you took?
You’re welcome! 🙂. The last time I did the hike was back in August and as far as I know the trail is open. A good starting point is navigating to: 3390 Deronda Drive, Los Angeles. But don’t park here unless you are parking on rock cliff drive. I usually park on Beachwood and walk up to 3390. A 15 minute walk. Then walk around the gate like in my video. Then you can view the sign and take the trail up.
No worries! I talked to parking enforcement last time I did the hike, they confirmed that you can park alongside Rockcliff Drive which is close to the start of the hike! I used to park alongside Beachwood too with no problem. Just look out for the signs!
I walked down Hollywood boulevard then walked to the sign. I was so tired and my legs hurt so much but I made it. I wish I could have went to the back of the sign but my phone was dying 😭🙂
Thanks for this video, my friend from germany sent me these beautiful scented handmade soy candles, i told her i would take them to shoot fotos with the hollywood sign behind them... and also with the stars on the sidewalks, she wants marlene dietrich of course
Awesome I gotta visit again sometime soon

You are welcome! Enjoy 😃
Thanks so much for the info! Took my date up the trail for a nice hike to the sign. We even parked right where you did haha. Thanks again!
So happy to hear that. Hope you guys had a good time. 😃
💯
How long did the hike take? Going up and coming down total time?
@@derrickharper2069 if my memory is correct, the total hike time was around an hour and a half! It was more of a nice walk really
Great video man. Help with planning and upcoming trip.
Awesome, have fun! 😃
There was a time a long ago when you could drive to that area, and park behind the sign.
Is there lions on these trails
Awesome vid bro keep it up
This was honestly the best video to get to the Hollywood Sign. I'm definitely going to do this in the future.
Thanks for sharing! Great route to the sign!

Hi, do the locals that live there get mad? Are we crossing their property when we take this route? Thank you!

I'm going this month 25th so will it be save if I park on Beachwood? then take the hike up?
Thank you for this guide! My only concern would be parking the car in a safe and legal spot 😅Is there an alternative route you could recommend also?
No worries! I talked to parking enforcement last time I did the hike, they confirmed that you can park alongside Rockcliff Drive which is close to the start of the hike! I used to park alongside Beachwood too with no problem. Just look out for the signs!
get dropped off by UBER
What’s the address to where you parked
Saved this video for later! so helpful. I am going here in JULY and will definitely be using this
I am so glad this video was helpful to you! Happy hiking! 😄
was it closed for you? there are articles saying the trail entrance for this route is closed
Will this gate remain open only at certain hours or is it open all the time?
Hey G, thanks for the comment! I believe it’s open till Sunset! I advise giving yourself enough time to have fun up there before sunset.
@@ArsalanAspires cool, thanks for a great video and tips.
I walked down Hollywood boulevard then walked to the sign. I was so tired and my legs hurt so much but I made it. I wish I could have went to the back of the sign but my phone was dying 😭🙂
That must have taken you what 5 hours? Hope you had fun! :)

Glad I found your video - Excellent job, by the way. Will be doing this hike on my electric skateboard on the paved road you featured! Thankyou!!
That really means a lot.
Glad I can help.
Thank you. 😃
Hey does anyone know if this is still open?
2:05 Yes it's open. New gate there but there is access: May 29 2023 Memorial Day
Do you of to pay 🤷♀️
hello how are you
Hollywood is Hollywood. Los Angeles is Los Angeles.
Duh on that parking tip bro.🤷🏽
Just an fyi, this route isn’t open anymore! The entrance is all shut with signs saying no hiking.
False information as a lot of foot traffic through gate today May 29 Memorial Day. 2:05 Since this video Gate just behind 4 steps.
gas for $3.10?!
That’s LA for you lol
I’m going to go off of the trail to get as close up to the front of the sign that I can.
