Bronson Canyon, Movie filming location in Griffith Park, Los Angeles, US.

The canyon contains a 50-foot tunnel with three distinct passageways carved into the rock face of an old quarry in the Hollywood Hills.

Union Rock Company established the quarry in 1903 and operated until the late 1920s, creating the caves that remain visible today.

The cave entrance gained recognition as the entrance to the Batcave in the 1966-1968 Batman television series and numerous other productions.

Visitors can access the canyon through a 0.7-mile trail from Canyon Drive, with parking available at both the upper and lower lots.

The natural rock formations create an optical illusion in films, making the small v-shaped area appear as an extensive mountainous landscape.
