Come explore the hills of north Silver Lake, where the vast Ivanhoe and Silver Lake reservoirs reflect the heavenly blue sky beneath Dodger Stadium and surroundings. This urban hike is led by Sierra Club trip leaders and covers 3 miles winding through stairs, streets, and sidewalks over two Silver Lake hills. The hike covers a range of local topics including the history of water, infrastructure, protected habitat, mid-century modern architecture, movie studios, immigration and LGBTQ history. The two hills are each a 600-700 foot elevation gain on stairs for a combined total gain of 1,200 feet. The hike starts at the Silver Lake Meadows, just across the street from the Neutra VDL House at 2300 Silver Lake Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90039. There is free street parking along Silver Lake Boulevard across from the reservoir and on Armstrong Avenue, off of Silver Lake Blvd. The best option is to find parking on the east side of Silver Lake Boulevard before you reach 2300 Silver Lake Boulevard. Cross at the cross walk with a traffic light in front of the VDL House. You can bring well behaved dogs on leash.
