Ascending San Francisco’s newest tiled stairway (first pic, 52 steps) at the west end of California St. in the Outer Richmond neighborhood up to the short trail leading to the east trailhead for Land’s End. 

Moving west, the first long stairway (about 120 steps) climbs up the east side: 2 thru 7.

Then down the curvy westside stairway on the main Land’s End/Coastal Trail with its 138 steps: 8 thru 17. 

The next stairway has around 267 steps and descends from the main trail to Mile Rock Beach: 


Pic 18: The beach rocks.

Above Mile Rock Beach are a few ways to get to the Labyrinth.

A steeper trail up: pic 19. 

Where the stairway emerges from the trees, another trail up is less steep: 20 thru 24.   

The Labyrinth: 25 thru 30. 

The official website for the Land's End Labyrinth by its creator, Eduardo Aguilera:

Now on the east side of the cliff, coming back from the Labyrinth to meet up with the stairway again midway-ish: 31 thru 37. 

Onto the Connector steps (89) from the main Land’s End Trail up to the El Camino del Mar Trail: 38 thru 42.

    I like meandering around on San Francisco's park trails and public stairways, sometimes taking photos, and enjoying nature and the outdoors.
