Today, in addition to the Griffith Observatory and Greek Amphitheatre, Griffith Park hosts the Los Angeles Zoo, the Museum of the American West, two golf courses (including the Roosevelt Golf Course), the Travel Town train museum, the Los Angeles Live Steamers model railroad track, a merry-go-round, the Hollywood Sign, and many hiking trails. The local (Angeles) unit of the Sierra Club has been leading free evening and weekend conditioning hikes in Griffith Park every week for almost 50 years.

Bronson Canyon is a popular shooting location for motion picture and television production.

Griffith Park was used as a location in the first two Back to the Future movies. In the first movie it was used for Marty's starting point when accellerating to 88mph in the film's climax, and in the second movie it was used for the "River Road Tunnel" scene when Marty was trying to get the almanac back. The same tunnel was used as the entrance to Toontown in Who Framed Roger Rabbit. The park was also featured in the Robert Altman movie Short Cuts.

Another popular attraction, which is especially popular during the month of December, is the opening of Griffith Park's annual light festival. This light festival is open to the public, where spectators can walk or drive by the festival of lights for free.
