Aldersgate: Local Resources
Fun in Pacific Palisades
Hiking: There are several good hiking
trails that are close to Aldersgate Retreat Center. The
closest trail head is at Temescal Canyon Gateway Park. This
is about a block away from Aldersgate Retreat Center and
there are several trails that branch off of there, including
one that goes up to a nice little waterfall. Los Liones
Canyon also has excellent hiking, and
Will Rogers State Historic Park has picnic areas, hiking
trails, and polo grounds.
