On Tuesday Rebel enjoyed some of the local sights in her new hometown of Los Angeles. 

The Pitch perfect actress showed off her trimmed-down physique as she hiked through the abandoned Griffith Park Zoo in Los Angeles. 

 The zoo itself shut down for good back in 1966, and the ruins of the animal enclosures are now a picnic area and hiking trail for keen adventurers.

Sassy lassy! After posting a picture of herself walking through the eerie environment, she also shared a video of herself removing the visor from her face - before cheekily sticking her tongue out at the camera

The blonde bombshell doned a tight blue T-shirt for the trip, and ensured all eyes were on her as she waltzed through the caves in the eye-catching leggings. 

She whisked her hair into a sleek ponytail, and wore a visor to protect her eyes from the sun.
