While visitors cannot climb the Hollywood Sign itself, there are several hiking trails and viewing areas that offer excellent photo opportunities. Popular spots include Griffith Observatory, Lake Hollywood Park, and the Hollywood & Highland Center. Hikes like the Mount Lee Trail allow for closer views of the sign while enjoying scenic views of Los Angeles. Access to the sign’s immediate area is restricted for safety and preservation reasons. Guided tours and local excursions often provide the best vantage points. Visitors are advised to respect the signage and follow park rules.
