Join us on this 8-mile Bridge to Breakfast Walk ™ across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco to Sausalito! Take one of the most unique and exhilarating walks on the planet. Make friends and get in shape.
The walk starts at the St. Francis Yacht Club parking lot near Crissy Field in San Francisco, crosses the iconic Golden Gate Bridge, pauses for a "bring-your-own" picnic-style meal together in historic Fort Baker, and continues to historic and quaint Sausalito. Your return to San Francisco may be had by Golden Gate Transit Bus or by Ferry. Although we usually return to our starting point before noon, you may plan on returning no later than 1 p.m.
Your host, Lindsay Spiller (he, him), will be wearing a Cal cap and will be standing at the far end of the parking lot next to the stone wall bordering the bay.
