Hearts For Sight (HFS) and Sierra Club invites you to join us for a refreshing and enjoyable hike at the Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area (KHSRA) in Baldwin Hills. We’ll gather at Stoneview Nature Center, cross La Cienega on a newly built steel bridge, and embark on an exciting 4.5-mile tour through the park. The trail offers a mix of inclines, with a 400-foot elevation gain, mainly on paved and cement paths, making it accessible for all fitness levels. There are benches and plenty of places to pause along the way. However, it might be a bit challenging for those with knee issues or difficulty walking on rougher terrain.
