The Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook is a stunning urban park located just a short distance away from downtown Los Angeles. Start your visit with a stop at their state-of-the-art visitor center where you can see exhibits on the history of the land and how it has now become a symbol of conservation and hope. There’s the main hiking trail as well as an easier loop trail which takes you through seasonal displays of native wildflowers. Other aspects include picnicking sites, bird and wildlife viewing points, and much more. At the top of the 500-foot peak, you’ll be able to see stunning views of LA including the Los Angeles Basin, the Pacific Ocean, and towering mountains in the distance.
