Twin Peaks
Website Directions 415-831-2700

Twin Peaks features two prominent hills near the geographic center of San Francisco, offering sweeping panoramic views of the skyline and Bay Area. The 64-acre park includes scenic hiking trails, native plant habitats, and vantage points like Christmas Tree Point. Visitors frequently gather here to admire the cityscape at sunrise, sunset, or illuminated after dark.

Quick tip: Bring warm layers, as strong wind gusts and sudden fog can make the summit unexpectedly cold.

Expert notes

  • Dress in layers and wear hiking shoes. It gets chilly due to strong winds at the top. Get the full experience by walking around the whole area; it is about half a mile long, offering great views of the surrounding. Bring a bottle of water and some snacks before venturing out there.
