West Fort Miley Trail

Hikers explore West Fort Miley

Fort Miley is hidden in plain sight. If you’ve visited Lands End or Sutro Baths, you’ve already passed right by this former military site. On your next visit, look east as you find parking near the USS San Francisco Memorial, you’ll see a paved road and one entrance to this elevated parkland. You can simply follow the wayfinder and road uphill to an opening above the trees. Admittedly, it’s a bit of a chore to ascend.
