It starts at Rancho Park Golf Course on Pico Boulevard in West Los Angeles.

It proceeds to intersect with Santa Monica and Wilshire boulevards, passing near Century City, Sinai Temple and Los Angeles Country Club.

The hills through which the boulevard passes north of Sunset and south of Mulholland Drive is known as Beverly Glen.

Beverly Glen runs parallel to the wealthy section of Bel-Air and its gated communities.

When traffic on I-405 becomes unbearable, many commuters take Beverly Glen or Sepulveda instead, causing considerable congestion on both streets.
