The Golden Gate Park Loop is an easy 3.1 mile hike through the eastern portion of Golden Gate Park. This trail starts from the intersection of 36th Ave and John F Kennedy Drive near Spreckels Lake, and continues along footpaths past Lloyd Lake before wrapping around Elk Glen Lake.

The path eventually winds its way down beneath the Golden Gate Park Polo Fields before following Chain of Lakes Road back up to it’s origin.

The paths are a combination of dirt and pavement, with only minimal elevation gain throughout the trail. Dogs are allows on leash, and while the paths can be heavily trafficked on weekends, during weekdays it can be quite quiet.
