I've been going to LA Tuna canyon for years. Glad to see they finally opened up more parking, so more folks could enjoy this exquisite canyon. It's a great trail for hiking, running or mountain biking.
If you're up for a challenge, take the small first hill. You will feel the leg burn and might have to get down on all fours on some spots if you're not wearing the right trail shoes as it gets slippery. Not recommended for kids and pets, but there's an easier, lower gradient, longer trail up the hill towards the right of the hill. About 3 miles to The Tree of Life summit area where there are fantastic views all around.
This is a decent hiking area with close proximity to LA. I stuck with the La Tuna Canyon Loop but there’s lots of trail options all around. Watch out for some steep sections and the recent rains eroded some sections - sticking with the main road is probably the best option until repairs are done. There were a moderate number of other hikers and mountain bikers. Seems like a popular spot for the nearby neighborhoods. Lots of dogs!
I really like la tuna canyon. It has terrific views (once u reach the top) and different styles of paths you can take depending on your style of hiking or walking. I use this area for mountain biking and training for Spartan races.
There are some crazy hills! We went up the longer (but easier) way and took some short cuts on some very steep hills. Hiking boots with great grips and hiking poles recommended for said steep hills.
I did an easy mountain bike ride up the La Tuna Canyon fire road. Mid week it was farley deserted. From the parking lot to the top was a little over 3.5 miles and 1700 feet of climbing. So not an easy walk. Lots of views into La Canada and from the top down into Burbank.
If you're into hiking, whether you are a beginner or an Intermediate hiker you will love this trail. It's a steay climb to the top by the towers. You can hike to Burbank on the right or hike to Glendale to the left and end up in Brand Park.
The mountain trail is challenging. It takes around 25-50 min depending on how fast and conditioned you are. It’s about 6 miles round trip. If you’re not up for the mountain trail, you can take the easier trail.

The hike was steep, challenging and fun. I could see Burbank airport from multiple stops. The sunset was gorgeous! I didn't have enough time to climb all the way to the top before it got pitch black. I'll have to come back another time.
