This segment of the famous Mulholland Drive is gravel and closed to cars, making it an excellent place to hike, bike, and explore high in the Hollywood Hills.

Mulholland Drive is a famous road and known the world over. This segment of it is gravel and closed to cars, making it an excellent place to hike, bike or run. The road takes you high into the Hollywood Hills overlooking downtown Los Angeles and the views are great.

This is a gravel section so I would suggest a good gravel bike with 40mm+ tires would be an excellent choice for this section.
