Route Description for Le Canada Teepee via Crosstown Trail

For those who want to experience a fairly short hiking route in the Angeles National Forest that still features some elevation gain, the La Canada Teepee via Crosstown Trail is a good option to explore. This route is suitable for a fun family adventure, but take note that there are some steep and rocky sections of trail that might not be suitable for very young hikers.

Setting out from the trailhead, you will head north to make your way into the mountainous terrain. As you trudge up the hillside, take some time to appreciate the stunning beauty of the California landscape that spreads out in every direction.

Eventually, you will arrive at the top of the trail, where you can visit a mountaintop teepee and gaze out at the horizon. After taking in the views, simply head back downhill to return to the trailhead.
