Just west of the Golden Gate Bridge, this is a more technical trail, with lots of climbs, descents, and switchbacks. Even though it’s less than a mile long, it’s a challenging run. It takes you through the historic military batteries that used to protect the entrance to the city, and it has the most amazing views of the Marin Headlands. If you turn off the trail about halfway through and head toward Marshall’s Beach, you’ll get to one of several nude beaches in San Francisco.

Batteries to Bluffs begins on a high note – quite literally. The two trailheads at Lincoln Boulevard offer an elevated view of the Pacific Ocean horizon, with the Golden Gate Bridge and Marin Headlands to the northwest, and the dramatic bluffs tumbling to the rocky shore below. While the scenery around the trail is exceptional – if you’re lucky, you may even see dolphins riding the crest of a wave – pay attention to what’s right next to you. Depending on the season, the path comes alive with native dune plants and wildflowers. Butterflies and birds cluster around to enjoy this bounty of bright flora. Batteries to Bluffs crisscrosses trickling seeps and hidden springs along the way to Battery Crosby, a historic gun battery you can explore to your heart’s content.
