Eastern Trailhead for the coastal trail, probably San Francisco's most spectacular nature path, leading around the forested cliffs at the city's North-Western corner overlooking the entrance to the Golden Gate. The 2.3 mile trail follows the bed of an earlier Steam train line built in the 1880s to bring customers to Adolphe Sutro's bath complex at Lands End, but frequent landslides made a rail and later a road along the cliffs too costly to maintain.
