The 244-acre Verdugo Mountains Open Space Preserve is located in the lushly-vegetated north-facing flank of the Verdugo Mountains in the City of Glendale. Entirely within a region designated by Los Angeles County as a Significant Ecological Area, the stunningly beautiful preserve contains more that 2,300 mature coast live oaks, sycamores, big leaf maples, bay laurels, and other indigenous trees. Numerous springs and blueline streams provide for a rich diversity of habitat. An extensive network of trails lead to dramatic vistas.
