Escondido Canyon Park

If you're looking for a nice peaceful hiking trail this is the best place to go away from the LA city but not too far. During the rainy season there's a beautiful waterfall at the end of the trail. There were some steep climbs but overall an easy walking trail. This is located in Malibu and on the way to the real trail you get a glimpse of mansions and vast grasslands. I really enjoyed the greenness with the ocean in the background. Here are some pictures that me and my partner took on the trail.
I really needed to get away from being cramped up at home and this was the perfect idea.

The cons:
-horse shit everywhere, rich people are too lazy and take their horses to the waterfall so on the way to the trail you are constantly dodging the horse shit.
- without a map you can get easily lost. me and daigo ended up on private property because we forgot the map
- there is little parking, and be careful when your walking to the canyon because rich people might run you over with their mercedes and range rovers.

Here's the pdf of the map:

These pictures don't do the trail justice but, here are some of the sights that I experienced.

This is what I come home to :)
