Presidio of San Francisco

If you’re looking for a scenic escape without leaving San Francisco, the Presidio is your go-to destination. With miles of dog-friendly trails, this historic park offers a unique blend of natural beauty and urban convenience.

The Presidio boasts a variety of terrains, from wooded areas to open fields, all within a stone’s throw of the Golden Gate Bridge. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, it’s a must-visit for any dog owner.

Among the numerous trails, Lobos Creek Valley Trail and Mountain Lake Trail stand out for their dog-friendly nature. Remember to keep your dog on a leash and always clean up after them.

While the Presidio is a haven for dogs and their owners, it’s also home to some local wildlife, including coyotes. Always be aware of your surroundings and keep your dog on a leash, especially during dawn and dusk when coyotes are most active.

The Presidio is open year-round, and there’s no shortage of parking spaces. Check out the official website for more information on trail maps and visitor guidelines.
