Hikes/Outdoors
- Lands End. This trail is beautiful and a nice easy walk/hike. Full views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the coast line. Easy and big parking lot. Restaurant with bathroom too near the parking lot. https://goo.gl/maps/HVwDST9mx3buaBV47
- Angel Island. Wow, this hike is stunning. It is a mission as you have to catch the ferry from Tiburon to get to Angel Island. It is a full on hike – but if you are feeling like getting a workout in, I highly recommend. https://goo.gl/maps/7owHAh6KWa8NWeU66. On the weekends there sometimes is live music at the small restaurant/bar on the island
- Lyons Street Steps. Gorgeous view at the top of Lyon St. The steps go all the way down to the marina. Also, located right next to Presidio park, which is beautiful. https://www.sftourismtips.com/lyon-street-steps.html
- Lombard St. This is a super steep hill that has the curviest street in all of America. It’s great fun to drive up and to get out and see. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lombard_Street_(San_Francisco)
