Outdoor workouts have taken on a whole new meaning over the past year. While our One Museum Square gym features the best equipment you could ask for, including pilates equipment, you can’t beat a good climb and fresh air. We love hiking, and you can explore some of our favorite Los Angeles hikes here. That includes Runyon Canyon in Hollywood and the Mandeville Canyon Trails. Today, however, we are exploring the best Los Angeles stairs to get an outdoor workout near your Mid-Wilshire apartments for rent.
Our Favorite Los Angeles Stairs
The Baldwin Hills Stairs
Starting with the Baldwin Hills Stairs. This stair workout is one of the most challenging ones in LA and is very close to your Miracle Mile apartments in Los Angeles over in Culver City. It also includes one of our favorite views in LA. Once you’ve reached the top, you will be rewarded with a 360-degree view of Los Angeles. To the north, you have Ballona Creek; in the distance are the Santa Monica mountains, and the downtown Los Angeles skyline is to the east.
The Santa Monica Stairs
Speaking of Santa Monica, up next, we have the Santa Monica stairs. This climb is not for the faint of heart either. This outdoor workout near your apartments for rent on Wilshire Boulevard consists of two sets. The first is wooden stairs with 170 steps, and the other is concrete with 199. It is located at Adelaide Dr and 4th St and is often pretty packed. Nonetheless, you are guaranteed a great workout.
The Micheltorena Silver Lake Stairs
Last but certainly not least, the Micheltorena Silver Lake Stairs. These stairs could be used for an outdoor workout, but we suggest visiting for the sake of a fun photo opportunity. They are located across Sunset Boulevard from Micheltorena Elementary School. Those of you living in Los Angeles at One Museum Square may know of them as the rainbow steps. All 40 steps are painted a different color and are fun for both photos or a little stroll with friends while you are in the area.
Hollywood Stairs
Before we wrap up, we want to mention a few other stairs that are a must-try. In particular those in Hollywood near your apartments for rent. There are a few, but our top two favorites are the historic Hollywoodland Stairs plus Paramount Stairway.
Our Favorite Los Angeles Stairs
From hardcore workouts to fun photo ops, the Los Angeles stairs never disappoint.
