Let's Get Out and WALK!
Details
Let[s walk to Kirby Cove!.
There are two options for accessing the SCA trailhead to Conzelman Rd. The first is near the Moore Rd. Pier/Discovery Bay Museum for no charge. (If you're lucky, you'll snag a spot near the Pier right next to the access road). To reach the trailhead you'll need to huff and puff for 15 minutes on the paved, no-cars-allowed access road that winds under the GGB to the Golden Gate North Vista Point parking lot.
If you want to avoid the trudge, you can also park at the Golden Gate North Vista Point parking lot on the shoulder of the Golden Gate Bridge (parking is $3 an hour - or was last time I checked).
From the SCA trailhead we'll head up until we hit Conzelman. Then we'll take off on the gently winding downward trail that leads to Kirby Cove and the beach. On the way back we'll check out a couple cool bunkers and play tourist as we take in the sweeping views of the GGB at Battery Spencer.
