Trail to Amir's Garden in Griffith Park

We have been waiting for an opportunity to walk up to Amir's Garden in Griffith Park. This Sunday it will be cool (50's) and partly sunny during the walk. We will park in the upper parking lot at the Wilson and Harding Golf Course on Griffith Park Drive. This is a large parking lot, which hopefully will NOT be full. Car-pooling is encouraged for this walk.

We will meet in that upper parking area at the arrow on the third map, which is a trail head for the Mineral Wells Trail, which will take us to the North Trail which goes to Amir's Garden. The total walk up and back will be about 1.2 miles. There is a 275 feet elevation gain on a wide dirt trail.

Speed cameras coming to Los Angeles

Posted on 04/17/2026

The City of Los Angeles is launching a Speed Safety Camera Pilot Program authorized by California AB-645. This week, LA City Council voted to accept the LADOT locations for these speed cameras. Sunland Blvd in Shadow Hills did not make it on the list for speed cameras because it did not qualify as a “high injury network”.

Here is a link to the map of speed camera locations. You can zoom out to see the whole city or zoom in to see specific streets and intersections:
