About Los Feliz

Los Feliz sits at the foot of Griffith Park, home to the Griffith Observatory — free to enter — plus miles of free trails, the shaded Fern Dell nature path and sweeping viewpoints over the city. It's one of the best neighborhoods in LA for a free day outdoors.

The flats around Vermont and Hillhurst add walkable streets, pocket parks and public art, with the vast free expanse of Griffith Park always just uphill.
