マリン郡の絶景の山頂・トップ20

Geodesic point at the top of Coyote Ridge, with panoramic views across the Marin Headlands, with low brush offering views down toward the coast

One of the best views in the entire Bay Area. No question.

Mount Tam East Peak offers some of the most majestic views north of the bay. From this vantage point, you can see all of Marin, along with Point Reyes to the north and Oakland and San Francisco to the south. The stunning panoramic vistas make the journey well worth the effort. There are restrooms and picnic tables, ideal for a snack or lunch while you capture some incredible photos.

Steep heading West can have traffic on SFD

Big Rock Ridge, a striking ridge near Novato, California, standing as Marin County's second-tallest peak. Spanning 5 miles from northwest to east, it creates a natural boundary for central and southern Marin County. Named after the rock at the base of Big Rock Trail, this ridge promises awe-inspiring views and invigorating trails.

Just before the last ascent of East Ridgecrest Blvd toward the East Peak of Mt Tamalpais is the Railway Grade Fireroad Trailhead on the south side, and a few dozen yards furthe south, the Eldridge Grade Fire Road down on the north side.

Great lookout with a usually closed summit hut at 2571 feet (784 m) elevation. Outstanding views of the Bay, Marin County, San Francisco, and the Pacific Ocean.

Highest point on Big Rock Ridge Fire Road with panoramic views of the Bay, Marin county, and even across the East bay to Mt. Diablo and south to San Francisco. A short spur trail here leads to a point with slightly better views down over Skywalker Ranch and the Lucas Valley.
