  • Really great place for a view the Bridge from above! Perfect for photos and for viewing with binoculars. Awesome stop whether or not you are going over the Bridge. Bathrooms available and free...

  • So wonderful and so lovely. It takes two days to click this picture because of the cloud. So whenever you decide to go there just check the weather and sometimes even the weather reports say it's shiny but still, you see clouds over there. This golden bridge has more than three viewpoints with some trails and hiking. Worth place to be there
  • Warning, your shoes will get dirty walking on this path. No paved pathway leading to the viewpoint, just dirt. Also, a lot of the pictures here are edited. The bridge is no where near that red. There are several different viewpoints along the road but the last one has the best view of the bridge. Really great view! Recommend stopping by but beware: there's absolutely no type of safety railings or nets up there. Be careful and don't stand too close to the edge for pictures.
  • It has great views. I suggest that you park next to Highway and take a hike trail to this overlook on the hill. It is short hike but it’s good workout. There will be plenty of folks on this overlook so take your time for photos. Views is million dollars - specially during sunset time. Best.
  • I have come here on a number of times but I’ve only gotten lucky a couple of times and actually got to see the bridge. When there isn’t any heavy fog this is the ideal spot to view the Golden Gate Bridge! We went at night and it was a bit spooky walking in the dark but as long as you have a flashlight (or a phone) it’s fine.
  • Amazing viewpoint. Free car parking along the road as it’s one way. It’s a short 5 minute walk to get to the viewpoint. There are toilets at the start of the trail but they are not very well maintained. Would highly recommend a visit here.
