hike with a view

one of the greatest living in los angeles perks is the countless short (and long) hikes available right in the heart of the city. you can get out of your car and within 5 minutes be on a trail in the middle of a hill with amazing views of the city or the coast. 
runyon canyon, in the hills above hollywood, is where the 'cool on the way to an audition kids' and their "cool furry sweater dogs" gather on any given morning for an hour long loop hike. it gets crowded and dusty and really hot in the summer - but on a crisp clear sunny winter morning - it's the perfect place to burn a few calories and remind yourself just how beautiful the city of angels can be.
have a gorgeous weekend, with fabulous views!
