Mandeville Canyon Trail

This was a really cool trail with a touch of history! It’s not the most adventurous hike but it’s a great workout and really well maintained. Not the most outlandish but you’ll see LA’s beautiful rolling hills. The main path is a wide paved road that’s mostly leveled and an easy trek. We took the steeper side trails on the way up to add an extra challenge. At the top we were surprised to find an abandoned military sentry tower that was formerly used to spot Soviet planes. A bit crowded, but most were in masks and respected distancing. Lots of bikers, but all were careful around hikers. There were many dogs, almost none on a leash but all well behaved and/or very friendly.
