    Some of the most amazing seaside views I’ve seen in California. My friends and I went here for a sunset walk and it was absolutely spectacular.

    If you've got time for only one hike in San Francisco it should be this one for the diversity of vegetation, landscape and extraordinary views of the Golden Gate and Marin County. There are also stunning views of Baker Beach and Marshall's Beach that on a clear day are truly amazing. You can start at the parking lot off Merchant Road near Marshall's Beach and walk to the endpoint on Lincoln Boulevard, or if you set out early in the morning there are a few parking spaces at the Lincoln Boulevard end. Do not under any circumstances leave ANYTHING of value in your car due to frequent break-ins!!

    Simple hike with amazing views of the ocean and the golden gate bridge. Beware of the crazy wind!

    If you get there early, the trail to the beach is usually deserted and has a thick layer of fog that you descend into and obscures the view of the bridge. I really enjoy this quiet, creepy aesthetic to one of America's landmarks, but I could see how you may not.

    No visit to Bake Beach is complete without a stroll through the trails. The views of the bay and more specifically the Golden Gate Bridge πŸŒ‰ are simply amazing from here. Also found an old friend Plank... lol. What more could one ask for!!

    One of my favorite hiking trails in THE WORLD. Breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean, the Golden Gate Bridge, and on a clear day, the Farallon Islands and Point Reyes. Sights and smells of wildflowers and native shrubbery. Finally, access to Marshall's Beach, and a mind-clearing stairs walk.

    Beautiful hike, amazing views of the ocean and Golden Gate Bridge. Some people are complaining about car break-ins and yes they are common in San Francisco. All you can do is don’t leave anything that looks remotely like a valuable in the car. Put it in the trunk or take it with you. Anything looking remotely close to a valuable like a laptop will cause your car to be broken into.

    Great trial with extremely good views. There are multiple paths that lead to the beach. Best views of Golden Gate Bridge. Be careful with the parking and your belonging. Crime prone and crowded area

    Wonderful trail that gives you amazing views of the Golden Gate, Golden Gate Bridge and Pacific Ocean. The trail has a lot of stairs that takes you down to Marshall Beach. It’s a great trail to that connects Baker Beach to the Golden Gate Bridge.

    Easy but fun hike. New to the area so went with some friends, took us about 20 mins one way, so total hike was about 40 mins but we stopped and took pictures. Got us a great view of the Golden Gate Bridge! Luckily fog wasn’t bad the day we went so pictures turned out well! Plenty of parking, hilly hike but not too bad.

    Awesome trail down the cliff to Marshall's Beach. Some stairs make it an easy walk.

    On this day I realized that I was getting older. How to breathe I decided to sit down, I ended up laying down, dozed off a little bit, open my eyes and I would swear but the birds were circling me because they knew something I didn't, they could smell it and it wouldn't be long! LOL
