Pacific Palisades: Beautiful Will Rogers State Park, California

Have you ever been to the Will Rogers State Historic Park?  This was my first time at the park and I had no idea how beautiful it was.  Will Rogers was the most popular and highest paid actor in Hollywood in the early 1930’s and he owned over 186 acres in what is now known as the Pacific Palisades.  Rogers’ property included a golf course, hiking trails, and a beautiful stable with 31 room ranch house.  The actor died in an airplane crash in 1935, and the ranch later became a state park in 1944.

The ranch is extremely relaxing and peaceful   This park has so much to offer, including horseback riding lessons, ranch house tours, guided trail rides and an amazing moderate 3-mile hike to Inspiration Point where you can enjoy a full view of the ocean.

Take a quick look at the video bellow and feel free to leave any comments.
