Description

A 90-minute walk below the Hollywood Sign

This is a guided Hollywood Sign walking tour of about 90 minutes. The walk stops at photo viewpoints below the sign. It is the shorter outing, not the 3-hour hike behind the sign.

Photo viewpoints below the sign

A guide leads the group to those viewpoints. The stop is for photos of the sign from below. The walk does not continue up behind the sign, and it is not a bike ride.

It suits guests who want:

  • a shorter outing than the 3-hour hike
  • sightseeing rather than a longer trail
  • an easier option for mixed groups and families
  • time left in the day after the walk

Hollywood Sign Tour vs. Hollywood Sign Hike

Choose by the kind of outing you want. This page is the shorter walk: about 90 minutes, with photo viewpoints below the sign.

The Hollywood Sign Hike is the longer guided hike, about 3 hours and 4 miles, and it goes to viewpoints behind the sign.

Guests who would rather ride can take the Hollywood Sign Bike Tour. That is a guided bike ride of about 3 hours and about 15 miles, not this walk.

What to expect

On this walk, plan on:

  • about 90 minutes with a guide
  • photo viewpoints below the Hollywood Sign
  • a route that does not go behind the sign
  • a pace set for sightseeing rather than a long hike
