Montecito Heights

Join us for an exhilarating ride through the scenic routes of Los Angeles! 🌄

Ride Description:

This cycling journey offers three route options for all skill levels, from beginner to advanced. We begin our adventure at Pascual Park, riding through Highland Park on our way to the stunning winding climbs of Montecito Drive. We'll regroup at the top at Rose Hill Park before continuing over several more hills towards South Pasadena, with a refreshing break at Garfield Park.

After resting, we will pedal through Arcadia, stopping for a tasty treat at Poppy Cake Bakery in Sierra Madre. Riders can then choose to either tackle the climb over Inverness Ave or head straight back. Our return journey passes along the iconic Rose Bowl.

For those seeking extra climbing, options include Hill Drive (16%) and Inverness Drive. Additionally, there are further challenging climbs available: Lida Street, Emerald Isle, Glenoaks Blvd “bonus bump,” and La Loma Road.
