Aside from being the site of James Dean's Rebel Without a Cause, this is also a pretty cool place to check out for both astronomy interests as well as a great view of the city, especially at night!
Just a 10 minute walk from the Treehouse and you're at the beach! Bluff Park has a nice greenbelt, with stair access to the beach and LB Strand bike path below.

About a five minute drive straight up Temple Ave (which then turns into Skyline Dr.) will end you at Hilltop Park at the top of Signal Hill, with a very cool 360 degree view of the entire L.A. area!
