Sections of Park Trail and Bay Area Ridge Trail Closed to Dog Walking

To reduce the potential for coyote/dog conflict, we’ve proactively closed large sections of the Park Trail and the Bay Area Ridge Trail to dog walking. This annual closure is temporary; we’ll reopen these trails to dog walking in fall after pupping season ends. All 24 miles of hiking trails in the Presidio are open to people.

Bicycling is a great way to explore the Presidio’s outdoor beauty and fun.

The park features miles of bike trails, bike lanes, and Slow Streets. You can also rent a bicycle in the Presidio or pick one up through Bay Wheels Bike Share. On a typical day, you’ll see hundreds of happy cyclists enjoying a spin around the park and even over the Golden Gate Bridge.
