Muir Beach: Bay Area's Green Gulch Trail and Coyote Ridge Trail

These are open-air trails that provide peaceful settings around the organic Buddhist gardens of Green Gulch and Muir Beach; clear views overlooking the ocean.  Sit looking out, take a deep breath, and everything is OK!  In March and April, there's a good chance you'll see Pilot or Humpback Whales!

Christmas Tree Hill in Corte Madera -- it's that bump in front (east) of Mt Tam. It's a wild car-ride (or bike, if you're a pro-athlete) to the top -- seriously -- it's not for the faint of heart. Beautiful and quiet trails with incredible views wait for you at the top.

Japanese Tea Garden, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco -- early morning is the best time to go to avoid tourists. It's one of the most peaceful places around. Plus, you get to have tea served to you, pond-side.

POPPIES!  POPPIES! Find them on the way to Yosemite in spring.

Duxbury Reef --Bolinas

is the largest exposed rocky reef in the world. This wonder is the home of an incredible number of marine species, daily scientific research, and... at one time, 12 shipwrecks. But don't get caught out on the edge when the tide is moving in!
