You can't be serious. Have you never seen Runyon Canyon? I doubt there's a busier hiking trail in the country. Hell, it's probably one of the busier city parks in the country, period.
Then there's the many Griffifth Park trails, Fryman Canyon, Temescal etc etc.
That's all in the Santa Monica mountains WITHIN the city of LA. Then Malibu has a bunch of popular trails in the Santa Monica moutains.
Hiking/being outdoors is part of LA's culture. You're clueless as hell. Everyone I've met in LA hikes or has at some level. EVERYONE. As someone who just hiked in Rock Creek Park in DC last year, I was stunned how quiet it
was compared to LA's urban trails. It's not even close.
I have no idea why you continue trying to pretend you know what life here is like.
