Walking from Presidio Pet Cemetery to Crissy Field then Golden Gate Bridge #UrbanTrekUSATips #SanFrancisco

Over a year ago, I posted what one would experience walking from Battery Bluff to the Presidio Pet Cemetery. I intended to post this right after but never got it done so here it is.

Crissy Field and a trail to walk to the Golden Gate Bridge with a nice way is something one can do after the Presidio Pet Cemetery. The video above shows what you can experience walking from the Pet Cemetery to the stairs that lead to the trail to the Golden Gate Bridge. 

Here are the directions:

• From the Pet Cemetery walk along Crissy Field Ave towards Crissy Field / Golden Gate Bridge.

• When you reach Mason St, cross to the other side where the grass is and turn left.

• Walk along the paved path along Mason St until you get to where the paved path end and the dirt path begins and the entrance to the parking lot is to your left. Follow the dirt path towards the Golden Gate Bridge.

• Follow the dirt path pass the Warming Hut. It might be a good idea to check out the stuff sold at the Warming Hut if you are looking for souvenirs. (Note: There are public toilets just past the Warming Hut. The video above show where they are as I pointed the video to their location.)

• When you reach the fence with the big chains (shown in the video), turn left and walk towards the stairs.

• When you get to the top of the stairs, walk to the right.

• Follow the trail and make sure to stop now and then to admire the view or sit and rest on one of the benches along the way. This is a video of the view.

• Keep walking along the path until you see this sign and walk right and follow the dirt path.

• Continue on the dirt path until you see the entrance to a tunnel and enter the tunnel.

• BE CAREFUL and MAKE SURE TO BEND as you get to the other side of the tunnel because the exit of the tunnel at the other side is a lot lower.

• When you get to the other side of the tunnel, this is what you will see. A nice spot to rest and relax for a while.
