A practical guide to Golden Gate Park

Marta Lindsey’s guide maps Golden Gate Park through the details visitors need to explore it: getting there and moving around, accessibility, museums and other attractions, recreation, and music. Eleven walks and hikes provide routes through the park, while birding and tree-identification tips add a natural-history dimension. The book also includes stories about the park’s creation and advice for parents of young children. With views, quieter spots, and hidden gems among its subjects, it presents the 1,017-acre park as both a destination and a place to discover on foot.
