Presidio Trails

From rugged coastal hikes to gentle paths, there is trail for everyone in the Presidio.

Sections of Park Trail and Bay Area Ridge Trail Closed to Dog Walking

To reduce the potential for coyote/dog conflict, we’ve proactively closed large sections of the Park Trail and the Bay Area Ridge Trail to dog walking. This annual closure is temporary; we’ll reopen these trails to dog walking in fall after pupping season ends. All 24 miles of hiking trails in the Presidio are open to people.

Walk, Hike, & Bike

Let’s go for a walk! The Presidio has the best nature trails in the city. Twelve major routes crisscross the park. Come out for great hiking in San Francisco, or bring your bike for adventures on multi-use trails. Along the way, don’t miss the scenic overlooks.
