Description
Reach new heights while hiking the fun and outrageously beautiful Dipsea Trail located right here in the Bay Area! With stunning redwood forests, ample micro-environments and Pacific Ocean views, this trail is worth every step it takes to get there! Literally! This 3.9 mile hike will definitely have you feeling the burn and features endless steps, ladders, and bridges to help descend through this steep ravine while breathing in the lush greenery and nature all around. The serenity of your environment takes away from the real shocker that this trail possesses. 1,000 feet. Elevated climbs of 1,000 feet and yet the only thing on my mind is the fact I was above the clouds with fog surrounding me.
