Coastal Trail to Golden Gate Bridge

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.

Marincello Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Marincello Trail climbs from the Tennessee Valley parking/trailhead to the top of the ridge separating it from Rodeo Valley. While climbing out of Tennessee Valley it offers spectacular views of the North Bay to San Rafael, to the West all the way down to the pacific, and to San Francisco and Golden Gate Bridge peeking through the ridgeline to the South. It is named for the road that was constructed in the 1960s by developers hoping to build a massive residential community into the headlands, which was finally defeated in the 1970s when local residents managed to put the entire area under protection.

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!
