Explore Los Angeles with your SUV rental
Griffith Park & The Hollywood Sign
Griffith Park is one of LA’s best-loved green spaces, offering its visitors hiking trails, city views and an iconic photo op with the one-and-only Hollywood Sign. Drive your SUV rental up the winding access roads, park near Griffith Observatory and enjoy sweeping views of Downtown LA, the Pacific Ocean and well beyond.
Pack your hiking boots, binoculars and a picnic - your rental SUV has space for it all. Whether you're hitting the trails early or catching the early sunset, this is the perfect spot to escape the bustle of the city without really leaving it.
Malibu & The Pacific Coast Highway
Few drives are more breathtaking than the Pacific Coast Highway north to Malibu. With cliffs on one side and the ocean on the other, it’s a true California classic. An SUV rental gives you the height and handling to really enjoy the twists and turns of the route with plenty of room.
Stop off for delicious fish tacos, spot dolphins at El Matador Beach, or just take your time enjoying the views from a roadside lookout. With lots of space for beach chairs, shopping bags or even surfboards (if you’re adventurous enough), your SUV car rental makes the journey just as fun as the destination.
Angeles National Forest
If you’re craving wide-open spaces and fresh mountain air, Angeles National Forest is a must-visit. Located just an hour northeast of LA, this sprawling forest offers hiking, camping and scenic drives through pine-covered mountains. Your SUV rental is well-equipped for this kind of terrain.
Pack your gear and explore trails like Switzer Falls or the Mount Wilson Observatory. It’s a world away from the traffic and bright lights of LA, but close enough for a spontaneous day trip. With an SUV rental in Los Angeles, getting there is half the adventure.
SUV rental in Los Angeles FAQs
What documents do I need to rent an SUV?
