2Santa Susana Pass State Historic Park
Nobody Hikes in LA recommends a five-mile hike through this historic park. The park property includes a route once used by the Chumash and Tongva natives to travel between the Simi and San Fernando Valleys. It was also later used by both the Spanish and old stagecoaches to travel between L.A. and points north.
The park still holds traces of the Chumash’s grinding basins and even stagecoach wheel ruts visible in the sandstone here. Other interesting natural features include the rugged cliffs, the rock formations, and a seasonal waterfall.
