  • NileGuide Expert tip:

    Getting to the caves is a short walk. Park your car at the first (larger) parking area and walk onwards (towards Griffith Park). After a short distance turn right onto the road with a red high curb. After another short distance bear left to find the caves. Other paths lead farther into Griffith Park.


  • Description:

    • These caves, located in Griffith Park, are the result of an old quarry dug in 1903 by the Union Rock Company in order to mine materials to use in building the surrounding streets. After the quarry closed in the 1920s, it became a spot for movie shoots. Scenes from Invasion of the Body Snatchers were shot here and more recently, the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.
