21ST GREAT LOS ANGELES WALK 2026 - SANTA MONICA BLVD.

**CROSS-POSTED WITH HUMANIST HIKERS, LA & OC WEIRDO MUSIC & ART FORUM** **Date:** Saturday Nov. 21, 2025 at 9:00 AM TO WHENEVER THE HECK YOU FINISH! **Starting location**: Echo Park Lady of the Lake Statue 751 Echo Park Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90026 [https://share.google/ytyoZEMgxV3AHssuW](https://share.google/ytyoZEMgxV3AHssuW) **End Location**: Santa Monica Pier - Santa Monica Bl & Ocean Ave., Santa Monica Join us for the 21st edition of the GLAW, and the 6th one with So Cal Explorers! It's a different route every year. For our 21st edition of The Great Los Angeles Walk, we're hitting the Mother Road! It's the 100th anniversary of Route 66, so why not get our kicks by walking the last several miles of the iconic highway — in this case, it's the full length of Santa Monica Boulevard! As always, the Walk will take place the Saturday before Thanksgiving, which this year is Saturday, Nov. 21, 2026. We'll meet at Echo Park's Lady of the Lake statue at 9 a.m. -- and then walk Route 66/Santa Monica Boulevard (which, I know, is now actually Route 2!) in its entirety, to the ocean. We'll end, naturally, at the Santa Monica Pier's "End of Route 66" sign. **SAVE THE DATE! After Party**: location TBD **Distance**: usually around 15-16 miles **Event web page:** [https://greatlawalk.blogspot.com](https://greatlawalk.blogspot.com) Attendees will be encouraged to explore the city in a safe way, and follow proper safety protocols. As they walk through Los Angeles, they’ll document what they see and share that experience with others. It’s not a race – attendees are encouraged to take their time, explore, learn about their city and even build community with others. **Sign up for their newsletter detailing the walk:** To join in, just EMAIL US at *[[greatlawalk@mail.com](http://greatlawalk@mail.com/)]([mailto:greatlawalk@mail.com](http://mailto:greatlawalk@mail.com/))* The Great Los Angeles Walk takes place every year **the Saturday before Thanksgiving.** \- Walk across the city of Los Angeles\. See the city from a new perspective\. \- Meet fellow walkers along the way\. \- This is **NOT** a race or competition. \- This is **NOT** a guided tour (but there is a map). \- Walk at your own pace and stop when and where you like\. **The journey itself is its own point.** L.A. journalist and blogger **Michael Schneider** launched the Great Los Angeles Walk in **2006** as a way to celebrate his tenth year in Los Angeles. Inspired by the book “Wilshire Boulevard: Grand Concourse of Los Angeles,” by Kevin Roderick, he decided to walk the street’s entire length. The Great Los Angeles Walk grew from dozens of participants to hundreds, and continues to expand each year – always the Saturday before Thanksgiving -- as more Angelenos join in to explore their city on foot. **Details to come on where we will gather, our food options during the day and more.** If you're not familiar with the Walk, please go read this wonderful feature in the Los Angeles Times, which perfectly encapsulated what we're all about: **[L.A. isn’t a walking city? The man behind Great Los Angeles Walk would like a word](https://www.latimes.com/lifestyle/story/2024-11-08/great-los-angeles-walk-michael-schneider)** As always, the Walk is **completely free**. It is up to the participants to decide how much or how little of the walk they want to do. More recently, the Walk was included in the book "***The Best Things to Do In Los Angeles: 1001 Ideas***" by Joy Yoo Social media users can follow along all day on the walk's **official Twitter feed, [https://x.com/greatlawalk](https://x.com/greatlawalk)** , as we continually post our location. **All the details are here:** *[http://greatlawalk.blogspot.com/](http://greatlawalk.blogspot.com/)* **Video: Why we walk** *[https://youtu.be/m5DASOc424w](https://youtu.be/m5DASOc424w)* **Facebook page**: *[https://www.facebook.com/greatlawalk](https://www.facebook.com/greatlawalk) /* Join their e-mail list: *[[greatlawalk@mail.com](http://greatlawalk@mail.com/)]([mailto:greatlawalk@mail.com](http://mailto:greatlawalk@mail.com/))* Photos from last year: [ https://www.meetup.com/so-cal-explorers/photos/35710054/](https://www.meetup.com/so-cal-explorers/photos/35710054/)
