Crissy Field is a natural park along the north shore of the San Francisco Peninsula. Just south of the Golden Gate Bridge, it offers spectacular views of the bridge, bay and city. The city people come here to play, a few even go into the frigid waters.

We cycled from Fishermans Wharf through Crissy Field and onto the Golden Gate Bridge. It is a lovely quiet area yet so close to the centre of San Fransisco. It has a lovely coastal walk and some amazing houses.

Open field for pets and people to roam around. The trail goes to either the city or the Golden Gate Park.

Runners, check out this area. We started at Fisherman's wharf and ran through Fort Mason to Crissy Field. Beautiful run by the water with views of the bridge all the way out. Must do!
