Reviews
We hiked the Solstice Canyon loop. This 3 mile trail has a lot of interests. There are ruins, a tiny waterfall, pretty wild flowers for this season, and the nice views. It was very easy to walk and I really like there. I will introduce this trail to my other friends who like to hike.
Got there at 7 in the morning to get easy parking. A moderate hike for this 65 year old to get to the waterfall. Early morning fog made it a cool wonderful temp. Keep to the left and stay on Solstice Canyon road to avoid thick foliage and slippery rocks and water crossing. I loved this hike and plan to do it again.
Beautiful hike to a small waterfall and the ruins of a couple of former houses that existed in the canyon pre-park days. It's a 3 mile hike round trip - very easy to hike if you stay on the main trail. If you decide to detour up the TRW trail it's a little more challenging, and overgrown, but the wildflowers make it worth it. Parking is extremely limited, be prepared to park close to PCH and hike in to the trailhead (about 3/4 of a mile extra each way)
i loved this hike!! you are walking right along a river so you hear it, practically the whole time. its a medium level hike. I saw little kids and older ppl. my daughter doesnt care for hikes and evn she loved it. its has plenty shade and greenery. Has historic building that burned down and a cute little waterfall at the end. Theres some Parking spaces but Not that many. And its very close to the beach!
A beautiful canyon with lovely trails. Winter and spring is the best time to visit as the water flows really well. The loop trail is approximately 2hrs long which is well worth it as you get to climb the canyon and see beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean and as far as Catalina Island. Less foot traffic in the morning.
This park is amazing! The views are breathtaking and is a nice scenic hike. I like to walk up through the mountains first and down to the foundation of the house/ waterfall area. HOWEVER, there is a VERY ATTRACTIVE park ranger that protects and looks over that space 😍. Protect him at all cost! I’m sure ppl hit on him often, and lawd I understand why. Moral of this story… go take a hike!
Had a great hike here on a warm Saturday. I enjoyed seeing the remains of the house which once stood at the end of the trail. I also enjoyed the waterfall, flowers and lizards along the trail. I think I did around 3 miles, and I’d love to come back for the longer 7 mile loop trail.
Gorgeous spot and possibly my new fav spot to hike in LA. Parking is definitely harder and limited but you can park up the hill and walk back down to the hike.
