Get on Angeles Crest. Follow this road all the way to Angeles Forest. From there, you will stop at the parking lot at Mill Creek Summit and look for the trail head near the drive that leads into the parking lot. Leave a Comment Theme: Hiking

 The ugly towers of Mount
Wilson by blaird
Just so you know, you are supposed to have a daily or annual adventure pass to park. I think the daily is about $5, the annual is about $35. These can be purchased in or outside of the mountains.
Here is one route in, the one I take most frequently. From I-5 North near Los Angeles, take Highway 2 North. follow this to the 210 East, and exit the 210 at the first exit: Angeles Crest. At the stop light at the end of the exit take a left, and now you just follow this road into the mountains. It is very easy.
boots, backpack, water, food, etc. bring lots of water, it gets HOT. Leave a Comment Theme: Hiking

 Going up Pacifico by blaird
I am no astronomer, it is just another reason to go here. Please be aware, this is not only reachable by hike, there are also roads due to the telescopes, history, and current research that is still conducted here. This makes reaching the top a lot less fun, since you won't be able to sit at the top, away from civilization. It is still right there with you.
Anyway, the hike, which is about 14 miles round trip, is very strenuous. There are some very beautiful spots along the way and has shaded areas, but also wide open areas that get hit by the sun making it hot.
Okay, as usual, you are on Angeles Crest, so from there you turn right at the "Red Box" ranger station. If you don't stop at Red Box and want to drive there, stay to the right (at the fork in the road) and follow the road up to the parking lot. It will lead you right to Mount Wilson. You will see the observatory peaking through the trees as you get near. Leave a Comment Theme: Hiking

Their are several great, scenic trails to hike in LA:
Will Rodgers State Park: off of Sunset Blvd. past Brentwood heading into the Pacific Palisades offers serenity and a 360 view of the city and ocean.
Griffith Park: in Los Feliz offers over 50 miles of trails
Runyan Canyon: Can either be entered from the Hollywood side at the end of Fuller Ave. or the Mulholland side; an off leash dog canyon, so bring puppy along! Stunning views of the city.
