My favorite hiking trails.
A super cool place to hike! It's located about 10 minutes away. Lots of Sci-Fi movies use this location for their scenes. Take the 14 Freeway north for about 4 miles and get off at Agua Dulce exit and turn left. Go up the road until it curves to the right. When you reach the stop sign, go straight ahead for about a mile. Vasquez Rocks Park is on your right. It's free to enter.
