Parks & Nature
Great place to hang out on the weekends – it's a short walk from our loft, sunny, and often filled with people picnicking and hanging out. We recommend picking up tacos at La Taqueria on the way over to eat in the part!

My favorite urban hike of all time. Take an uber out there and give yourself 90 minutes or so to walk along the trail. It's often crowded for the first portion of the trail, then the crowds will thin out as you keep walking. Amazing views of the Golden Gate Bridge.
