Golden Gate Park loop — 6 miles of running without dodging cars

Golden Gate Park has great paved paths for running loops. Multiple eastern entrances available, head west past windmills to ocean, loop back via chain of lakes drive for approximately 6 miles total.

Early morning best for avoiding crowds and cyclists. Park drive closed to cars on sundays which opens up more route options. Gentle rolling hills, nothing too steep.

Public restrooms and water fountains every mile or so. Perfect for visiting runners who want a long route without navigating SF traffic.
