Review & FAQ:

Golden Gate National Recreation Area travels 70 miles, to the north and south of the Golden Gate bridge. Towering redwoods, awe inspiring shoreline, breathtaking vistas, and coastal wilderness provide endless hours of exploration. There are a number of hiking trails, which vary in difficulty. Visitors may choose to traverse the bluffs, meander through forests, climb hillside switchbacks, or make their way to one of the area’s historical landmarks. A paved walking and biking trail provides yet another option. There are four secluded campgrounds within Golden Gate, located at the Marin Headlands. The campsites are tent-only. Water is not provided, and fires are not permitted.
