Rute

1. Our local guide will meet you at our office, a dedicated bike bungalow in adorable Atwater Village, an easy walkable neighborhood known for its cafe scene and artisanal shopping. We'll introduce you to your ebike and get you acquainted (yes all the ebikes have names!) and fitted with safety gear.

   10 min

2. We head off into quiet residential streets for the LA River.

   5 min

3. We stop at the car-free "Red Car Bridge", so named after the legendary Red Car Trolleys that rumbled over the L.A. River at the same spot more than 60 years ago. The new metal bridge with red stripes running down its sides is only for pedestrians and cyclists. We'll also learn about our beloved LA River, the lifeblood of Los Angeles throughout its early history, providing essential water for life in this arid region. Without this river, LA would have never existed.

   20 min

4. We'll drop by the Griffith Park Ranger Station and the vintage Griffith Park Carousel - an iconic Merry-Go-Round built in 1926 and featuring 68 elaborately decorated wooden horses & an organ, where Walt Disney's imagination first took flight.

   15 min

5. We'll cycle amongst the ruins of this abandoned former zoo (1912 - 1966) which is now a hidden hiking spot with old cages and caves home to Shakespeare in the Park.

   5 min

6. We'll head for Cathy's Corner, made recently famous by the movie LA LA Land with Ryan Gosling & Emma Stone’s dance sequence. This stop also offers a breathtaking view of the Valley, Disney Animation Studios in Burbank, the San Gabriel Mountains, Verdugo Hills and down into Royce's Canyon. We’ll then stop at The Notch, which overlook Hollywoods, WeHo (West Hollywood) Palos Verdes, Santa Moncia, Century City. On a clear day you can also see Catalina Island, the Pacific Ocean and Santa Barbara. Here we’ll veer off to Del Valley Vista Drive headed for Beehive Rock and other mega vistas of LA. We’ll stop at Cedar Grove, a local micro-forest that attracts Hollywood hikers to explore its unexpected, woodsy wildlife. Located on a low-profile Los Feliz hillside, this hidden gem offers sweeping city views of Glendale to Downtown, and Hollywood to the sea.

   50 min

7. We'll roll further into Griffith Park. With over 4,210 acres of both natural chaparral-covered terrain and landscaped parkland and picnic areas, Griffith Park has something for everyone.

   30 min

8. The most significant geological outcrop and natural landmark within Griffith Park. Its highest elongated peak points toward the east, hovering over the Old Zoo, and towering over picnic areas and the Wilson-Harding Golf Course.

   15 min

10. We’ll head back to the LA River, stopping by the new La Kretz Crossing, also known as the North Atwater Bridge - a cable-stayed steel pedestrian bridge that crosses the Los Angeles River, linking Griffith Park with Atwater Village. We’ll pay a visit to a special Rose Gum tree, named by the LA Times as one of 10 beloved L.A. trees that Angelenos should enjoy — and protect at all costs. This Rose Gum, from Australia, is a cousin of the eucalyptuses, but from an older family line.

    15 min

11. We’ll ride down LA River, past equestrian stables, to another smaller bridge at Sunnynook known as "Love Lock Bridge" where visitors have attach personalized padlocks to its railing, like it’s more famous Parisian cousin. Rolling back into Atwater Village's quiet residential streets we’ll pay our respects to a designated “national champion” - a huge avocado tree over 100 years old that is the largest of its kind in the nation.
