About The Panhandle

Explore The Panhandle in San Francisco, a vibrant urban oasis connecting seamlessly to Golden Gate Park. This linear park offers two distinct trails for outdoor enthusiasts. The Panhandle Walking Trail provides a dedicated 0.7-mile paved path ideal for walkers and runners seeking a peaceful escape amidst the city bustle. Enjoy views of mature trees, and take advantage of amenities like off-leash dog areas and basketball courts. Please note that bikes and skates are not permitted on the Walking Trail, ensuring a pedestrian-friendly environment.

For cyclists and those who prefer a multi-use path, The Panhandle Bike Trail offers a 0.7-mile route running alongside the north side of the park. This trail welcomes both bikes and pedestrians, but users should remain aware of potentially faster-moving cyclists. Like the Walking Trail, you'll be treated to scenic views of the park's lush greenery, dog-friendly open spaces, and nearby basketball courts. Dogs are welcome on the path, making it a great option for a shared outing with your furry friend.
