Walking in San Francisco

San Francisco is the American city that most rewards, and most punishes, the walker. More than fifty hills fold its neighbourhoods together, so every climb ends in a view of the bay, the bridges or the Pacific, and the cable cars are there for when your legs give out.

Terrain. Seriously hilly outside the waterfront and the Mission. Some residential streets exceed 30% gradient and have steps cut into the pavement. Plan routes that go around hills rather than over them, or use the cable cars and buses for the climbs.

Weather. Cool year-round, with summers the coolest of any major US city; fog and wind are common in July and August. September and October are usually the warmest, clearest months. Carry a jacket in every season.
