Hilly trails, oak-studded ridges and panoramic overlooks make Stough Canyon Park ideal for landscape and nature photography — sweeping San Fernando Valley vistas, seasonal wildflowers and intimate woodland scenes. Best at sunrise or sunset for warm side-light on ridges; after winter rains for green hills and poppies. Small parking lot off Lockheed View Dr (free); trails are mostly dirt and moderately steep — wear hiking shoes. No permits for casual shooting; weekdays and early mornings avoid dog
