Overview
Mount Lee in Griffith Park is the peak where the Hollywood Sign stands on its southern slope. The immediate sign area is closed to the public because of a communications tower, but trails from the Griffith Observatory, Bronson Canyon and other trailheads offer views of the sign, and the Wisdom Tree on the western slope is accessible.
