The Panhandle bike trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Golden Gate Park's eastern extension into the city has two parallel paved trails, the southern trail is pedestrian-only, the northern is a bike trail that also is used by joggers and walkers. In 2020 an additional bike trail is painted on Fell St, parallel to the park to create more separation options.

Sausalito Houseboats

Highlight • Settlement

The Sausalito houseboat community is full of architectural gems and repurposed old working boats, and each is wonderfully unique. Bikes are not allowed on the dock, so you must park your bike to get a closer look; however, remember to be respectful when visiting, as these are residential homes, and you are close to someone's living space.

Golden Gate Bridge

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

When you think of the iconic features of San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge is one of the first things that comes to mind. This impressive suspension bridge links the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula to Marin County, with fantastic views of the city, marina and Crissy Field.

It is one of the most internationally recognized symbols of San Francisco, California, and the United States, putting it at the top of many cyclist's bucket lists. While crossing, you can gaze up at the towering beams above or look down into the deep waters of the San Francisco Strait below you as sailboats drift by in the mouth of the Bay.

Traveling along the Bridge can be cold, windy, and foggy, even in the summer, so dress appropriately. At the south end, you can purchase a souvenir at the Golden Gate Bridge Pavilion and visit the café next to the visitor center.

Restrooms are at both the north and south ends, and cyclists have toll-free access to the Bridge's sidewalks 24 hours a day. A bike ride across this extraordinary Bridge is an adventure you don't want to miss!

Coastal Trail to Golden Gate Bridge

Highlight • Trail

Bikers coming off the Golden Gate Bridge Bike lane or coming up from the Presidio Promenade and Crissy Field can now safely continue South on a smooth gravel path south on the bluffs above the Pacific between the historic Battery Godfrey buildings, without going through the car tunnels under the bridge ramp.
