Sandstone Peak, Mountain summit in Santa Monica Mountains, United States.
Sandstone Peak is a mountain summit in the Santa Monica Mountains that rises to 949 meters (3,114 feet). The top offers sweeping views across the Pacific Ocean and the Los Angeles metropolitan area.
Indigenous peoples occupied the Santa Monica Mountains for thousands of years before Spanish explorers reached the region in the 18th century. This landscape shaped the lives and movements of these communities long before it became a modern recreational destination.
The peak serves as a training ground for mountaineers and rock climbers who practice advanced techniques on its numerous rock formations.
The trail to the summit covers roughly 10 kilometers (6 miles) round trip and requires moderate fitness. Bring plenty of water and start early in the day, as the path offers little shade, especially during warm months.
The rock formations attract climbers who train on different routes here. Hikers can watch these activities from designated viewpoints along the trail without interrupting their climb.
