Some Not All

The Inner Sunset’s Golden Gate Heights neighborhood is pure heaven for those of us who love our long stairways: one after another. Pix here are some of ‘em, not all. 

Starting off at the foot of the 148 Hidden Garden Steps, Kirkham up to Lawton on 16th Ave. Pix 1 thru 4. 


Continuing up the Hidden Garden Steps: 5 thru 16.

Next, the Moraga/16th tiled stairway, foot and near the top, pix 17 and 18, 163 steps. 


At the top of the Moraga steps you can continue up the 144 zigzag stairs (19, 20, 21) to Grandview Park, San Francisco’s tallest sand dune.

And continue down the Moraga steps on the east slope of the hilltop park: 195 steps: 22, 23. 

Passing the foot of Mount stairway (24, 25), then Ortega’s foot (pic 26).

Selma Way, Ortega to Noriega, has 153 steps: last three pix.

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