The featured image was taken from within Bronson Cave in the Bronson Canyon. It’s located in the southwest section of Griffith Park, just outside of Hollywood.
Park at the large parking lot just before the end of Canyon Drive. From the trailhead, follow the fire road for 10-15 minutes until you see the large cave at the bottom of a large hill. There are other caves to explore as well!
