Spanning 4,210 acres, Griffith Park is remarkable stretch of rough, hilly wilderness tucked within the heart of Los Angeles County. While the city’s largest municipal park has mountains, canyons, and 50 miles of hiking trails, it’s also home to a diverse collection of cultural institutions, including the historic Griffith Observatory. Come see a show at the open-air Greek Theatre, stroll through the Los Angeles Zoo & Botanical Gardens, or explore the Autry Museum of the American West.
