Malibu Creek State Park

Los Angeles
State or Provincial Park

As if Malibu didn't have enough going for it -- beaches, weather, and general utopian-ness -- they've got Malibu Creek State Park, a sprawling 7000-acre mountain range, complete with a lake <em>and</em> canyon, cause, after all, it's Malibu. Bonus coolness: <em>Planet of the Apes</em> and <em>Logan's Run</em> were filmed here.
