Solstice Canyon in the Santa Monica Mountains

Hours: 3 and half hours ( 3.5 miles for loop, and additional 3.5 miles for Sostomo Trail/Deer Valley)

Difficulty: Easy-Moderate

Pet-Friendly: Dogs are allowed on leash.

Parking: Free parking lot is available at the trailhead.

Start at the parking lot and take Rising Sun Trail, and went waterfall and ruins of old house. For additional workout, took Sostomo trail and Deer Valley Loop trail. It was great trail and well maintained. Since the most trail is exposed to the sun, it is better in Spring and Fall.
