We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Trebek Open Space yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Donated by the eponymous game show host, this sunny, 62-acre tract offers broad & panoramic paths.
What runners say about Trebek Open Space
“Was a bit tough to find the trailheads but the view was gorgeous and we walked straight down into Hollywood after.”
“A quiet place and a good length for a walk.”
It sucks. Don’t go hiking here. You will be disappointed. . . . . . . . . . (are they gone? Yeah this is a little gem that I don’t want jerks to spoil.)
A quiet place and a good length for a walk. I don't want to go tell everyone, because I don't want to make it too popular. I love it being a good neighborhood secret spot.
Who knew? Alex Trebek actually had this trail and space preserved. Kudos to him. Beautiful views of LA. It was super hot the day we went so be prepared. Always bring water and wear a hat and sunscreen.
This place is a killer hike with some pretty amazing views of Hollywood. There were barely people on the trail, a great alternative to nearby Runyon that's often packed with people.
