JessInNY Posted September 15, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Hello All, One more question....I will be on the 10/5 California Coastal cruise. I love to go hiking, and/or take nature walks. Any suggested hiking places at our ports of call (SF, LA, Santa Barbara, SD)? Any within walking distance of where we dock? Thank you very much for any suggestions. Have a nice day.

ozbuc Posted September 15, 2013 #2 Share Posted September 15, 2013 While in S.F. you might try The Filbert steps. It's about 600 steps up to Coit Tower. The bottom of the steps are located behind Levi park. From Coit Tower you can walk over to the Cable Car museum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nna Posted September 17, 2013 #3 Share Posted September 17, 2013 lots in SF.. look at http://www.511.org and take bus over to Mt Davidson...highest point in SF. bus would take maybe an hour...hike for 20 minutes. hike from fisherman's wharf along crissy field, ft point and then south on coastal trail to baker beach. it goes also to the cliff house further south. take ferry over to angel island and hike around or up to top. take bus to muir woods and hike the trails in the redwoods. look at transit site..you should be able to get there by public bus. or take bus to pantoll up on mt tam...hike in woods or down to stinson beach. or even just take geary bus out to cliff house and hike down ocean beach. O I like the filbert steps too..angel island is the closest wild spot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeftcoastBC Posted September 21, 2013 #5 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Checkout the latest couple of issues of "Sunset" magazine. Likely will also have some of the same info on their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff in Torrance Posted September 29, 2013 #6 Share Posted September 29, 2013 In San Diego you can walk to Balboa Park (about 2 miles each way). The zoo is there, as are many other varied things to see and do. The USS Midway is only about two blocks from the cruise dock. Other ship museums nearby, also. Little Italy (on the way to Balboa Park). Lots of good restaurants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
