It is suspended from the bridge that is the entrance to the Ballona Bike Path at the intersection of National Blvd. and Jefferson. It is 30 feet tall and can be accessed from a path at the eastern end of the pedestrian bridge (next to Alternative Rentals, 5805 W. Jefferson).

Forest Service team was a minute behind me and took the swing down. I took pics when it was taken down. They stated that originally it was a covered rest area. Authorities have other plans for that location. One plan is to restore the rest area with a bench.

New swing is up on a different branch that is a little bit less dangerous than the old one
