"olden Gate Park is basically San Francisco's backyard except this backyard has windmills, roller discos, and no annoying neighbors. I love that you can bike from end to end without dodging Teslas and delivery robots. With so much ground to cover, choosing the right route makes all the difference. I've spent countless rides figuring out the best ways to see it all without missing a beat. So hop on your bike and let's ride I'll show you the best paths to take."
"I've road-tested plenty of routes, but two always deliver. JFK Way and the Overlook Way both stretch across the park at seven miles round trip, offering an effortless coast west to the ocean and a gentle but steady climb back east. It's just the right balance easy enough to enjoy, challenging enough to feel like a ride. Start your ride Enter the park at Stanyan and Haight Street and head right toward JFK Drive."
Golden Gate Park functions as San Francisco's expansive recreational backyard with windmills, roller discos, and wide car-free streets. Two recommended bike routes, JFK Way and the Overlook Way, run about seven miles round trip, offering an easy westward coast and a gentle eastward climb back into the city. Begin at Stanyan and Haight Street and consider a coffee and pastry from the nearby Flywheel Coffee Kiosk. The JFK Promenade is a 1.5-mile vehicle-free stretch featuring art installations, road murals, outdoor instruments, and lawn games after a 2020 closure and a 2022 vote to keep it car-free. The route passes gardens, meadows, a waterfall, and the 1878 Conservatory of Flowers housing rare flora.
