Tennessee Beach loop hike - 9.1miles / 1800ft elev

** Long weekend hike **
9.1 mile loop trail near Muir Beach, California. This is a very popular area for birding, hiking, and running, so you'll likely encounter other people while exploring.

A great loop hike beginning at Muir Beach and taking in Tennessee Beach and Pirate's Cove. When done right, this hike has it all: wildlife, views (of San Francisco, Golden Gate Bridge, and rugged stretches of Pacific Coast), beaches, etc. Much more interesting than doing the more typical out and back from Muir Beach to Tennessee Beach along the Coastal Trail.
