For a more economical option, take the DASH Observatory Bus operated by the Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) from the Vermont/Sunset Metro Red Line station to the Griffith Observatory, which from noon to 10 p.m. It now costs $4 per hour to park in the Observatory Parking Lot and along West Observatory Road and Western Canyon Road near Griffith Observatory. Roadside parking leading up to the observatory fills up too. This lot gets very congested and often has no spaces available. Where should you start? The nearest trailhead to Mount Hollywood is Charlie Turner Trailhead at the back of the parking area by Griffith Observatory. Griffith Observatory from Mount Hollywood Beginning from the trailhead by Griffith Observatory, the hike to Mount Hollywood is 1.4 to 3.2 miles round trip with 500 feet of elevation change (including a 2.65-mile looping route recommended here). Starting from Western Canyon, the hike to Mount Hollywood is 3 to 4.8 miles round trip with 925 feet of elevation change (including a 4.2-mile looping route recommended here). Intersecting trails going up the mountain offer routes of different lengths and gradients.
Set out from the parking lot at Griffith Observatory for a short hike to Mount Hollywood or begin down in Western Canyon for something a little longer.
