Nestled in the hills of Topanga Canyon, California is a place known to the locals as The Topanga Time Tunnel. Located on the side of a curvy mountain road, behind a guardrail and shrouded in bushes, the large storm drain is hidden from plain sight on Topanga Canyon Boulevard.
Los Angeles County is no stranger to underground tunnels, mazes of pipelines under the city streets, and hidden gems. Reportedly, Los Angeles holds a whole other world underground, including 15,000 miles of natural gas lines, 3,000 miles of sewers, more than 50,000 manholes, and hundreds of miles of storm drains. Home to unique spots, such as the Canned Heat Mystery House, the antique store Hidden Treasures, and The Great Wall of Topanga, Topanga Canyon is known for some of the largest of storm drains, measuring 17 feet wide by 10 feet high.
Of course, the storm drain - that can only be found by heeding the wisdom of those who have gone before - and its practical uses, are irrelevant to those who stumble across the tunnel. Appearing as a portal to a hidden grotto, the mysterious tunnel leads to an oasis where one can feel like one has entered a different land. Join us in our hunt for the Topanga Time Tunnel.
