I don’t think this park is well kept enough. There are areas that they could cut for people to walk through comfortably. There are spots with no grass but mud. 4 star for the views.

Vista Hermosa Natural Park is a sizable green space with a wooded loop trail, there are some stairs near the west gate entrance. Great views of downtown LA from south side of the trail. The park has a picnic area, benches, as well as public restrooms. It's probably not a great place for kids to play but adults will enjoy a breezy stroll.

First thing i smelled was Rosemary when I got out, gifted me a JOLT of happiness right away...✅️ 😊👍 FYI, not my ex Rosemary, she smells fantastic too, the plant... 😂 Such a beautiful place to visit. Bring some water and snacks and leave the electronics inside the car, unplug for an hour, your mental health will thank you!

Beautiful park located near by downtown Los Angeles. A scape from the city noise and traffic. Excellent for picnics, workouts and walk out your dog. Dogs must be on a leash.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

How disabled-accessible are the trails? Are the trails rocky, sandy, rutted? Are there a lot of places to sit and rest? Can you make it all the way around without hitting steep areas (uphill or downhill)?

J Sanchez | Jun 21, 2022

There are ramps for wheelchair. Short trail is not rough, not too steep and easy to follow. There are many benches to sit and relax.

Can i have a birthday party there. And if so do i need permit and is there a fee?

Alma Carrillo | Aug 21, 2019
jorge burgos | Aug 21, 2019

You know , I had the same question about the park because if you have been there you would see how memorable the park and party would be. I read the other answers that were posted and this is my advice: i imagine that because parking is not only limited there but in the surrounding area because of the construction, you may want to check with the office onsite in case matters have changed and u do need a permit. The last thing you would want to find yourself with is finding out the day of that you do need one or that there is some other event going on that would jeopardize at very least YOUR ability to park on the parking lot to unload your party supplies. The classic saying "better safe than sorry " is adequate in your situation, wouldn't you say?
