A simple walking hike with a wide, non-challenging path through the hills above Monrovia. Makes a nice alternative when Canyon Park is closed.
Accessible trail in Pasadena with large parking lots that are often overflowing on weekends. 1.1 mile hike ends in a waterfall.
A small day hike easily accessible of the 210 just north of Eagle Rock. The trail is fairly steep, but not especially challenging, and it can be narrow in places. If you want to picnic on the hike, do it before or after your hike at the trailhead where there is a park with picnic tables. Lots of black sage, scrub oak, Lemonade Berry and Sugar Bush and views of the valley.
