13 miles. 10 peaks.
This is not your ordinary walk in the park.
See the city like never before! On Peak to Peak, you’ll discover hidden stairways and explore new paths while raising funds to make San Francisco a safer, better place to walk.

This is the sixth annual Peak to Peak, but we’ve got a whole new route! The new “North by Northwest” route will start in the heart of the Mission and head though the stairways, trails and quiet streets of Bernal Heights and Glen Park, then climb up Glen Canyon and across the high spine of the city. Once we’ve concluded our morning climb of the highest peaks in the city, we’ll reward ourselves with a delicious lunch served in a peaceful meadow on Mt. Sutro.
