This Highlight goes through a protected area
Please check local regulations for: Marin Headlands
This road is the southernmost in Marin Headlands and begins just northwest of the Bridge, offering an incredible perspective of the East Bay, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Alcatraz. The two Vista points near the Bridge from Battery East may look familiar, as they have been in countless movie shots. The road continues to Hawk Hill, with spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean and majestic falcons flying overhead, hence the name. The road continues to a dead end at Point Bonita Lighthouse, where you can park your bike and walk up the short trail for more amazing views of the dramatic rocky coastline and the crashing waves below you.
