The sunsets at the Penthouse Bar at the Hotel Shangri-LA are really spectacular. If you get there early enough, they even have happy hour specials. And if you decide to stay for dinner, there is a nice city lights view. If you prefer sipping a cocktail outdoors in the fresh ocean breeze, the rooftop bar at the Shangri-La Hotel is a wonderful place to savor the sunsets.

Parks & Nature
Temescal Canyon Loop offers a good workout along with ocean and canyon views. Temescal Gateway Park is situated just off Sunset Blvd in the Pacific Palisades, and this convenient urban location makes Temescal Canyon Loop a very popular hike. The basic dimensions of the loop is 2.6 miles with 1,000 feet of elevation gain, but the hike can be expanded to four miles or longer thanks to a variety of extensions. If the elevation seems too extreme, skip the Ridge Trail and enjoy a relaxing out-and-back along Canyon Trail instead, a level trail along the bottom of the canyon that makes up half of the loop. To reach the main trailhead: Cross the string of parking lots at the base of Temescal Gateway Park. Just past the bathrooms and general store, take the mulch road to the left following signs for Ridge Trail. After a few hundred feet, turn up the stars on the left next to the mileage sign for Ridge Trail and begin the loop.

The trail is in the Pacific Palisades, right off of Sunset. Drive to the top of Paseo Miramar and that is where the hike begins. If you are able to make it to the top, then you’ll see an amazing view of the whole city, which is well worth the two hour trek.
