Walktober: SF Traverse

Saturday, October 24, 2026

Join the Ridge Trail Council in celebrating the first-ever Walktober San Francisco – a city-wide festival of walking over October 2026!

The goal of Walktober is to encourage people to get out and explore their community on foot. As part of this celebration, we will be hosting a hike that explores the full distance of the Ridge Trail through San Francisco, from Daly City to the Golden Gate Bridge.

We’ll hike through long stretches of parks and open space, including Lake Merced, Pine Lake Park, Twin Peaks, Sutro Forest, Golden Gate Park, and the Presidio. We’ll stop for lunch (bring your own) along the way. Total distance is about 14 miles.

What to Bring:

    • Sturdy shoes for hiking
    • Day pack
    • 2 liters of water
    • Snacks / lunch
    • Sunscreen
    • Hat
    • Jacket
