🔥Burn🦃Turkey Fat🍁Thanksgiving🍂San Francisco🌊Ocean Hike🥾Lands End

**Hello Ocean Lovers,** Come join us for a wellness and relaxing hike at Lands End, San Francisco! 🍁 If you have No big family plans this **Thanksgiving— a beautiful way to connect with nature and meet new friends.** Thanksgiving doesn’t have to be about big gatherings or fancy meals — it can also be a time for peace, reflection, and gratitude for life’s simple gifts. 🌿💛 We’ll hike along the stunning coastal trail, enjoy the sound of the waves, and take a moment to appreciate the present moment together. 🌊✨ Let’s share the spirit of gratitude, connection, and peace — one step at a time. 🌸 “Gratitude makes the heart full and the journey brighter.” 💖 Lands End Trail is a favorite among both locals and visitors alike! This trail explores the historic Sutro Baths and offers great views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the Pacific Ocean. A must see for any visitor to San Francisco. **Lands End San Francisco** The Coastal Trail at Lands End in San Francisco is a gorgeous spot for hiking, but most visitors to the city don't know it's there. Early History San Francisco was originally inhabited by the Ohlone Indians. An archeological site at Lands End was dated at 150 A.D., but there is evidence that Indians had been living in San Francisco for around 3,000 years. They had seasonal camps where the Sutro Baths ruins are now, eating seafood and hunting seals; archeologists found their garbage dumps, more politely known as middens. Hiking the Lands End Trail The Lands End Coastal Trail is walkway that starts just above the Cliff House, then winds in and out of the woods and along the edge of the bluffs, and ends in a ritzy residential area (Sea Cliff) near China Beach. 🌊**Lands End Trail.** The way down is quite steep, but there is a stairway to follow. It's a small, rocky beach, good for relaxing and watching the breaking waves, but too rough (and cold) for swimming. **🇨🇳 China Beach** is a small, secluded cove located in the Sea Cliff neighborhood of San Francisco, tucked between Lands End and Baker Beach within the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Key Features & Overview • Views: Offers dramatic, sweeping views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the Marin Headlands. • History: Named after the 19th-century Chinese fishermen who used the cove as a Gold Rush-era campsite. A memorial monument honoring these Chinese-American laborers is located near the trailhead. • Amenities: Features a small free parking lot (around 490 Sea Cliff Ave), picnic tables, barbecue grills, restrooms, and cold-water showers. Mile Rock Beach Another branch of the same path will take you down to the mini-beach, Mile Rock Beach, at the foot of Lands End Point. Mile Rock Beach-Tiny, but cool! It secluded the beach at the entrance to San Francisco Bay, a scene of many shipwrecks, but a pretty detour off the gorgeous. 🎒 Bring good vibes🌿 ✅Smiles for miles😊 ✅Water, Snacks, Beach Blanket ✅Wear Hiking shoes, Layer, Sunscreen ​Layers (it can get breezy right by the sea!) ​Sun protection, water, and snacks for our beach break ​Your camera/phone for some incredible group photos ​A fantastic, positive attitude! ⏰**Meet time: 1pm** and 🥾 **Hike Time 1:30pm** Great Highway & John F Kennedy Drive, San Francisco, CA 94121 GPS: https://goo.gl/maps/YYgxvPfbS9h6bfX9A across from the Beach Chalet Brewery at beach side parking lot We'll be at the beach side parking lot Parking: Free Level: Level: Moderate+ Challenging!

Roaming Russian Hill

Russian Hill has been a favourite destination for roams over the years, and I am always looking for new ways to combine the highlights of this quintessentially San Franciscan neighbourhood. This year's version clocks in at just three miles (according to Google Maps, which does usually underestimate distances) but will include a number of steep blocks of climbing and staircases - up and down. Also along the route are five open spaces, more or less well known, and mostly with incomparable views which we will stop to appreciate. *Bringing water, snacks, and layers for all the microclimates is the way to go. Please check the forecast and look out for updates if it is going to be rainy. We may go ahead, depending on the conditions.* *These roams are offered by donation. They are one way I am able to pay my rent in San Francisco.* *Punctuality is always appreciated, for the sake of everybody's time. Please send a message on the app before the start if you are running late, and we will either wait (up to ten minutes) or I will direct you on how to catch up. Once we get underway I have to focus on those who are there, and most likely won't respond.* *Generally half the people who sign up don't actually show up on the day. I do track flakiness and remove people who have a poor attendance record. It is discourteous to those on the waitlist who would like to attend.* *Sending me a message explaining that you can't make it is always appreciated.*
