Elysian Park: Trail Above 5 Freeway Not For The Faint Of Heart

Photo: Diane Edwardson, January 22, 2011. View toward Griffith Park from the Elysian Park trail that runs above the 5 Freeway. (Click on photo to enlarge.)

The Elysian Park trail above the 5 Freeway is narrow and partially obstructed with rock slides. At least once we had to jump over a chasm where the trail slid down the hill.

It would be better if you didn't have to drive to Elysian Park
