Lincoln Park
Lonely Planet review for Lincoln Park
John McLaren took time out from his day job as Golden Gate Park’s superintendent for 56 years to establish lovely Lincoln Park. A well-tended walking path covers a surprisingly rugged, bucolic stretch of coast from the Cliff House to the Legion of Honor, part of the 9-mile Coastal Trail. Terrific views of the Golden Gate are a highlight of the half-hour hike from Land’s End to the Legion – and it’s worth it, fog or no fog. Pick up the trailhead near the remains of the Sutro Baths.
