The beautiful old eucalyptus tree known as Hippie Tree - or sometimes Tick Rock - has been a Tiburon attraction for decades. Hippie Tree is fairly easy to climb, with long, strong branches hanging horizontally out from the trunk, and there is even a wooden and rope swing hanging from one of the branches. The swing is a little high up, but it provides a great spot to sit and swing and look out at the views of Richardson Bay, Mount Tam, and even the Golden Gate Bridge. Hippie Tree is not easily accessible, and visitors looking to find it may have to hike for about 15 minutes before finding it, but the views, and the experience of spending time with this unique old tree, are entirely worth the effort.
