Rincon Hill Dog Park

The entire city, as well as the San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge, can be seen from this terraced park.

Rails-to-Trails Conservancy, a nonprofit organization working to establish a nationwide network of trails from former rail lines and linking corridors, supports the San Francisco Bay Trail, which is one of 1600 rail-trails supported by the group. This "rail-trail," which was once an abandoned railroad line, is now a terrific spot to walk Petzooie in San Francisco! A parking lot with easy access to the San Francisco Bay Trail is shown on the map below.

With 3221 residential units and 9000 occupants, Parkmerced is a planned community of high-rise apartments and low-rise garden apartments. Many students and school employees make their home here and walk to their classes on campus at San Francisco State University.

For you and your dog, the San Francisco Recreation and Park Commission has designated select park locations throughout the city as off-leash dog zones. Please help to ensure that all park visitors have a nice experience by maintaining these areas neat and clean and according to our new citywide dog policy.

The California Natural Resources Agency has awarded Recreation and Parks a substantial $2 million grant to rehabilitate the Dog Training Area near the Bison Paddock in Golden Gate Park.

A fantastic new addition to Mission Bay Parks, complete with a doggie play area and a plethora of tail-wagging facilities.
