You'll enjoy a pleasant, tree-lined environment, particularly with pepper trees providing shade. On clear days, you can catch picturesque views of the San Gabriel Mountains, including Mount Baldy. The path also winds past a variety of homes, from historic bungalows to Victorian houses and gated estates.
