★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 230 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $19

Review of LA’s $19 Hollywood sunset walk and Runyon Canyon hike, with movie landmarks, city views, guide Scott, and rescue pup Blue.

“A sunset hike from the Hollywood Walk of Fame, TCL Chinese Theater, and Roosevelt Hotel to Runyon Canyon. Hiking through the Hollywood Hills for views of the Hollywood sign, Griffith Park, and the LA Skyline. As the sun set and day transitioned to night, one can’t help but be in awe of the beauty of the Hollywood Hills and the valley below. Scott led the walk to Runyan Canyon and provided interesting narrative along the way to Runyan Canyon. His furry friend “Blue” joined us. Scott said he often sees celebrities walking their dog in the park.”
