trails near Los Angeles

I am pretty new to off-roading and I have mainly been to Gorman (hungry valley) about 2-3 times. I am looking for somewhere new to adventure. I don't have too many friends who have off road rigs. So since I will be going alone, Something not too hard is what I prefer.

Do you guys have any recommendations near LA? Can't seem to find much online

 

check out Del Sur ridge. Its in the Santa Clarita area. Its a fun way to kill 2 hours. Im a newbie and done it solo, and its got offshoots if you want more fun.

I found the trail on alltrails

 

Thanjs for the recommendation.

 

is it two hours on e way? Or total

 

Total- You start on Bouquet Cyn Rd, and end back on the same road, just further up.

took me 2 hours to do , and that’s with a few stops to walk around, and check out the view

 

Santa Barbara, and lockwood valley both have some trails, although they may be a bit further than you’d want to drive from LA.

 

I actually don’t mind Santa Barbara. I go there often. Where would I find these trails?

 

I’ll dm you!

 

Mind DMing me that info too?

I go to SB now and then, and would be awesome to explore some trails in the area! such a beautiful area.

 

check out Palomar Divide in Cleveland National forest SD. Big Bear also has plenty of cool trails up by Holcomb valley. Josha tree has some nice dirt roads with nice scenery. All withing a 2 hour drive for the most part

 

A great one is in Azusa called the San Gabriel OHV Trail! You can make reservations here: https://www.recreation.gov/timed-entry/10086721/ticket/10086722 Perfect place to get a quick run out there, has lots of open space and also a mud pit if you're into that!
