Description
Added by Pascual Dutton
Tennessee Beach via Tennessee Valley Trail is a short hike with varying topography that ends at a beautiful and less-crowded beach. This is the perfect outing for the casual hiker. It’s easy to explore adjoining trails and is kid/family friendly.
The Tennessee Valley trail is leisurely 3.6 mile roundtrip hike that turns around at Tennessee Valley Cove. Along the way, you’ll hike past shrublands, wetlands, and a lake before you get to a cool little secluded beach that many people picnic at.
This is probably the easiest to access, and most popular, hike just north of the Golden Gate Bridge. It’s a perfect option for those without a lot of time, or if you’re looking to stretch your legs a bit without getting crazy. It’s just long enough to feel like you’ve earned that post-hike brunch at The Dipsea Café .
There are a number of nice bathrooms at the start and end of the trail, along with picnic tables and drinking water.

Easy and wonderful hike. Definitely a hike for all ages. When you get to the first fork going left is easy flat ground perfect for people with little one.

Really easy day hike with a great end. Beach is pretty small but worth checking out. Go early in the day before 1 to beat the crowd.
