Los Angeles River Trail

Los Angeles River Trail

A vibrant dog park bathed in sunlight features abundant greenery with mature trees, offering ample shade for leisurely outdoor activities. In the distance is a well-equipped playground that presents an additional activity area. An inviting picnic table spreads out nearby, ideal for enjoying meals al fresco or taking relaxing breaks from play. A neatly-placed trash bin aids in maintaining the park's cleanliness for everyone's enjoyment. Dominating the scene is a generously wide dirt path gracefully curving through the expanse of grass, promising exploratory walks and lively fetch games.

This segment of County-managed trail along the Los Angeles River makes up a portion of the larger Los Angeles River multi-use trail corridor. This section of the trail passes south through South Gate, Paramount and Long Beach along both concrete channel segments and more naturalized ones, terminating approximately three miles from the Pacific Ocean. Continue north along the Los Angeles River to reach other completed segments of the trail or head east on Rio Hondo Trail.

The trail may be accessed from many points along its route. The trailhead is located just north of the 105 and 710 freeway interchange. From the 710, exit at Imperial Highway and head east. Access is on the right after passing over the river.
