Guided Coastal Walk Along a National Historic Trail | Presdio

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Take a walk back through time to experience the cultural history of one of San Francisco’s most enduring landmarks.

In 1776, some 240 men, women, and children arrived at the Golden Gate — the homeland of the Ohlone people — and established the first non-Native settlement at San Francisco Bay.

Join this coastal walk along the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail through the Presidio of San Francisco. The National Park Service and California Historical Society invite you to uncover the story of these settlers and the legacy of their descendants, including Juana Briones.

Meeting time and location: This 2-mile round trip walk departs from the Golden Gate Bridge Visitor Center at 1:30 pm on Saturday, May 17, 2014. They will walk a gradual uphill mile to the Rob Hill Campground and return. The Golden Gate Bridge Visitor Center is located at the Bridge Pavilion on the San Francisco side of the bridge. See transit directions here.

Visit the bilingual exhibit, Juana Briones y su California, through June 8 at the California Historical Society
