With gyms, yoga studios and many pools closed temporarily, people have found solace in walking around L.A. It’s an easy way to log a couple thousand steps and unwind from the work-at-home grind.
Each walk includes a map, directions, bits of history and cool things to see along the way. Even if you think you know the city, Haddad surprises you with twists that sharpen the eye-level focus that walking provides.
A dusty half-hour later, with city views to the east, we arrived at the Victory Memorial Grove, a century-old World War I stone monument and plaque. And the grove of trees meant to stand forever? It’s “mostly reduced to a small army of steadfast eucalyptus,” Haddad writes in the book. are written by people passionate about seeing the city on foot and sharing their remarkable finds. The real treasure is making us all more well-rounded Angelenos, pandemic or not.“10,000 Steps” divides the city into six areas: Central L.A. and the Eastside; Hollywood and Mid-City; West San Gabriel Valley; San Fernando Valley; the Westside; and the South Bay. If you’re a serious daily stepper, these will cover your first 10,000.
“This is a perfect sampler for the San Fernando Valley. It’s representative of many of the walks: Take a place many people are familiar with, then peel back the layers to reveal obscure features that can only be discovered on foot. Plus, it has that formula of combining nature with residential and business districts, to really capture the flavor of a place.”
