Looking for your next urban adventure in San Francisco? Our city’s 7×7 miles are home to some incredible hiking trails, forests and grassy hills, and we’re sharing just a few of our favorites below!
Corona Heights Park
If you’ve been looking for a small hike with ~big~views, look no further than Corona Heights! This trail is short but steep, and features a dog park that your pup is sure to love.
Tank Hill
Tank Hill is truly a hidden gem! While this park is relatively small, its breathtaking views of downtown SF all the way to the Golden Gate Bridge are not to be missed.
Glen Canyon Park
Did you know there’s a canyon in the middle of San Francisco?
Glen Canyon is located directly behind Glen Park Playground and features trails, a dog park and a hidden rope swing! It’s the perfect place to find a few moments of peace and quiet in SF.
Philosopher’s Way, McLaren Park
If you’re yearning for a nearby nature adventure, this trail is calling your name!
Complete with sweeping meadows, a variety of terrain, and views of the city, Philosopher’s Way is a 2.7 mile loop around McLaren Park — and the perfect weekend adventure for you and your crew!
Mount Sutro
Surrounded by eucalyptus and redwood trees, Mount Sutro is an urban oasis that’s too often overlooked!
We recommend extending your walk to the connecting Glen Canyon and Twin Peaks trails if you’re hoping for a longer walk in the woods.
Grandview Park
While getting to the top of Grandview is no joke, the panoramic view of the northern part of the city and nearby tiled steps more than make up for this trek!
Don’t let the secret out, but we think it might just be the best spot in SF to watch the sunset…
