Hike Party: Sunday Streets, Philosopher’s Trail, Pub & Picnic | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

This 6-mile hike led by Jill Katz will begin at the Balboa Park BART station at 1 pm. Walk upstairs and take the Ocean Avenue exit. You will meet outside the station.

You’ll proceed up Ocean Avenue toward Mission Street. Exclesior is having their Sunday Streets Fair so you will walk through the party and then proceed up Brazil. Brazil leads into McLaren Park, San Francisco’s second-largest park. Explore an immense natural area of scenic meadows, grassland and wetland habitat. More than 7 miles of walking trails meander through its 312 acres, replete with native plants and wildlife. Established in 1927, the park is named for John McLaren, the ‘grandfather of Golden Gate Park.’

Then discover the Philoshoper’s Trail which winds by two lakes and has a stellar view of the city. You will loop to the water tower for yet another beautiful view of the city. You will then head down hill to Broken Record Pub (cause you know you will be parched) where you can sit outside on picnic tables and have an ice cold beverage. They also have yummy food too. Bring some cash for drinks and food.
