This is a great MORNING activity. If it's noon and you're still home, forget it. Go on a hike the next day, first thing. Otherwise you will regret being stuck in traffic to and from Runyon. There is a small parking lot on the North entrance. Street parking at the South entrance. GPS will normally route you to the North entrance. It's the scenic route from here! Takes you through Bev Hills, Mulholland (Bel Air), Sunset...
