10 Safest Places to Run in Los Angeles

Griffith Park

Griffith Park is one of the larger parks with over 4,300 acres. Besides running, you can participate in other activities such as seeing a show at The Greek Theater, or visiting the Autry National Center or Griffith Observatory. If you enjoy seeing animals from all over the world, take a run by the Los Angeles Zoo. There are many trails for you to choose from.

There is also a 53-mile hike at this park that starts at the Observatory parking lot and leads to the summit of Mount Hollywood. You can challenge your leg muscles in a whole new way by running this trail, which is the highest peak in the park. Once you make it to the top, you are rewarded with a wonderful view of the entire Los Angeles Basin.
