Description
The trailhead for the Caballero Canyon Trail lies across Reseda Blvd. from the Braemar Country Club. Free parking can be found along the boulevard. From the trailhead, the hike takes you down a dirt path that follows a creek running parallel to Reseda Blvd. The trail meanders south while steadily gaining elevation. Roughly one mile into the hike the trail enters Topanga State Park before coming to an end as it comes to its juncture with Mulholland Drive. Thanks to John McKinney, The Trailmaster, for sharing this trail description. To learn more about trails in California, check out his guides at The Trailmaster Store.
