So much to do and see here, it would take you the whole day to explore the place. There are dedicated bike paths that take you through the entire park. There is a lake and lots of shady areas to picnic under. Only downside is there a a lot of people there, on the weekends, so parking can be a challenge.

Eagle Rock in Topanga State Park

Eagle Rock is located in Topanga State Park in the Santa Monica Mountains, and it is a unique formation that provides an amazing panoramic view of Santa Monica. On a clear day, the Catalina Islands and Palos Verdes Peninsula are visible.
