    Tiburon is an incorporated town in Marin County, California, on the Tiburon Peninsula, which reaches south into the San Francisco Bay. Tiburon was formerly the southern terminus of the Northwestern Pacific Railroad, which transported freight for transfer to barges for shipping to cities around San Francisco Bay until about 1964.

    Great little museum reminding us of the excellent train and ferry system that used to connect Marin with San Francisco in the 19th and early 20th century.

    Embark on the San Francisco Bay Trail: Tiburon Loop, a moderate road cycling route spanning 26.1 miles (42.0 km). You will experience diverse scenery, from views of Sausalito across Richardson Bay to expansive vistas of Angel Island and the San Francisco skyline from Immigrant Point Overlook. The route involves a total elevation gain of 1194 feet (364 metres) and typically takes around 1 hour and 51 minutes to complete, offering a varied experience as you cycle.

    To plan your visit, you can easily access the loop with parking available in downtown Tiburon. Consider enhancing your trip by taking a ferry to or from Tiburon, which adds a unique perspective to your ride and allows for flexible travel. This route is a great choice if you are looking for an alternative to the often-congested Golden Gate Bridge, providing a different way to enjoy the Bay Area's beauty.

    This loop is particularly notable for its transition from open bay views to more treed sections, creating a dynamic cycling environment. It offers a distinct perspective of Marin County, allowing you to appreciate the natural landscape and iconic landmarks without the typical city bustle. The route provides a refreshing escape, connecting you with the unique coastal environment of the San Francisco Bay.
