Beautiful spot for Golden Gate Bridge and ocean pictures. One of my favorite spots.
"The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco." ~Mark Twain
The trail is temporarily shut down to help preserve wildlife so you can't take the Batteries to Bluffs trail down to the water. That said, still some great sites!
Nice coastal hike to the bridge & back. (Just under 3 miles total.) On weekends, get there early to get a parking spot.
We opened the gates to all the world and let all men who want to be free come to us and they will be welcome. President Woodrow Wilson.
Beautiful view!
Such a great place to watch the sunset, the ocean looks amazing
Life should be fun, even if Alcatraz could be in your future!
Nice view from Pier 39
One of the best views in the city. Great for a trail run (if you don't mind stairs).
Gorgeous views of the GG
Great spot for whale watching!
Does what it says on the tin. Good view of the bridge too.
Dope views
Nice view of the pacific ocean and golden gate. Right next to a pretty busy street though
Accidental find while showing a friend around! Excellent panoramic view of San Francisco!! Easy walk to the top. Worth the view!
Climb on the rocks.
This might be the best lookout spot! I like it more than twin peaks!
One of the must see spots in SF. Super romantic. Nice easy hike.
Get here early for sublime birding in the dawn hours, grab an egg sandwich from Louies and hike down to the ruins. Warm up with a cappuccino when the cafe opens at 9 am.
Follow the signs to Mile Rock beach. When you've almost reached bottom of stairs (~200 steps!), veer to the right up a hill to a plateau with mini-labyrinth, incredible view of the Golden Gate.
Great workout spot! And very scenic for photos, as well as the nice houses around!
Start at the bottom (wearing comfortable shoes) and make yourself up to the top, with camera ready to shoot pictures!
Not crowded on New Years morning! Happy 2012!
The views are stunning from this location. Definitely just take some time for quiet reflection.
Appears to be free admission for the tower (unlike the rest of the museum) if you walk with confidence to the elevators... Incredible, panoramic views of the city on clear days.
Fabulous view of SF. Read more.
Super dog friendly!
This spot is known for its gusty winds and is worth checking out for the novelty of kiting under the Golden Gate Bridge. Just be careful of wind shadows and barges!” – Gretta Kruesi
Best Golden gate pix!!
After you have soaked in the view of Alcatraz, take a walk down the Ecology Trail to El Polin Springs. A short ,but beautiful, hike.
Chill.....
Bring a jacket
Bring binoculars for killer views of the city, bay and Marin.
There are tomatoes up here!
Sadly a lot of the Buena Vista is obscured by trees but still worth the walk up
Greats views. Lots of steps.
Walk up to the end of Montgomery St.. For a spectacular view of Downtown SF
On a sunny day this is an awesome place to walk or make part of your run.
Nice shops and beautiful view
Great running spot!
My favorite spot in SF. The park on top has a great view 👌🏼
coming right before sunset would be perfect! We came here a lil late so was hard to see the mosaic steps, but still got to see the sunset and was very romantic :)
A beautiful hidden staircase covered in tiles. It's quite a climb all the way to the top! Head to the top of Grand View Park after for an amazing view of the city.
