From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mulholland Highway traverses east-west, through the Southern Transverse Ranges, between U.S. Hwy 101, and State Highway 1 (e.g., Pacific Coast Highway), in Los Angeles. Mulholland Highway is the westernmost extention of Mulholland Drive. Mulholland's easternmost terminous begins, from Cahuenga Boulevard, in the Hollywood Hills, and is known as Mulholland Drive. The unpaved segment punctuates Mulholland Drive and Mulholland Highway, and traverses the northern slope of the southern Transverse Ranges, from Beverly Hills to Woodland Hills. Mulholland Highway formally begins in Calabasas, and entends to its westernmost terminous, at Leo Carillo State Beach, at Pacific Coast Highway. Wholly contained, within Los Angeles county, this scenic byway was formally opened, circa 1925. In tandem with Potrero Road, Mulholland enables motorists to zigzag the entire length of the Southern California Transverse Ranges, from Camarillo all the way to Hollywood, without having to reply upon Pacific Coast Highway or State Hwy 101.
