    Hiking

    At the end of the winding Mesa Rd begins one of the most spectacular coastal trails in the Bay Area: the southern tip of the Point Reyes National Seashore, closest to San Francisco less than one hour away, the Coast Trail leads along beaches (don't miss Palomarin Beach just below here), cliffs, lakes, and a mix of forested and open meadows to the unique tidefall of Alamere Falls, one of only two in California that fall right onto the beach.
