There is plenty of street parking at this trailhead, with the amazing Big Rock nearby to make it easy to spot. The Bay Area Ridge Trail runs along the ridgelines surrounding the San Francisco Bay area and spans over 500 miles of multi-use trails. This portion offers some of the best views of Marin and the city skyline.
