Glide from Atwater Village along the LA River and climb into Griffith Park on an assisted luxury e-bike. In about three hours you’ll skip Observatory lines, sweep past movie locations and sample urban-wildlife views from 1,700 ft.

Family Friendly
No Experience Required
You start in Atwater Village with the smell of coffee and chain oil — a bungalow full of named e-bikes waits while the LA River sits low and glints like a ribbon through the city. Within minutes you’re gliding onto the car-free Red Car Pedestrian Bridge, the city falling away behind you as the bikes push you up into Griffith Park’s chaparral-lined ridges. At 1,700 feet the air opens; the Hollywood Sign and the art-deco Observatory sit framed against the basin like stage props, while gulls and hawks wheel above the canyon.
