Weekend Sherpa: Hikes (With the Dog) at Fort Funston
If you notice Sparky clicking his paws with his eyes shut tight, there's a good chance he's thinking, There's no place like Funston. San Francisco's popular Fort Funston is a dog's dream, bringing pooches out tails a-wagging, as they enjoy the windswept dunes. Hang gliders share the area, taking to the sky like flying monkeys. Bring your best friend for a quick hike down to the parks's wide-open beach. To get there, you and your four-legged pal will have to hoof and woof down a sand ladder. Then, relish in this magical canine coastline backed by 30-foot high cliffs as fetch is played in all directions. Fairy tails do come true!
Directions and more information on Fort Funston can be found at Weekend Sherpa. Sign up for their free weekly email about accessible Bay Area hikes.
