Vista Point

this is where everyone goes. If you want a better view , slightly our of the ordinary go to the South Side, up the hill a bit on Conzelman Road . The lookout is much more spectacular

Go under the bridge . Just off the parking lot , look for a steep set of stairs. It connects the pedestrian side to the biker side through an underroad passage.

Rent a bike from Bay City Bike and go from Fisherman's Wharf to the bridge and back. There are a couple of short steep climbs but maneuvering through the crowd on the bridge is the biggest challenge

On a clear beautiful day, there is nothing better than this scenic view ; It's definitely a photographers playground .

Always a dope spot. Go all the way to the top and you'll find really cool bunkers. And then a cut through the hills and you're at Kronkite Beach . :)

Best view of the golden gate!! Come by late in the night, park your car here.. Stare in awe for an hour at the awesome spectacle in front of you!! Moonlit sky makes it look mesmerizing :)

One of the best location to take a photo of the Golden Gate Bridge with a city view !

Another great place for scenic view over the bay , the bridge and the city .

Check the weather if it's fog-free the day you plan to go, or check the satellite weather for clearness by the coast. This place is best on clear, fog-less days.

If you get here by walking the Golden Gate bridge — keep in mind that bribe is closing sidewalk at 6:30 pm!

Beautiful view of San Fran and the golden gate bridge . We ran across the bridge and this was a great ending, then on to Sausalito.

Awsome view on the Golden Gate Bridge and SF bay

Incredible views of the GG Bridge and the bay . Very windy and chilly, bring a jacket or sweater

Yes, you do get a good view of the bridge but go up Conzelman road for an even better view .

Best views of the City are from outside the City .

Beautiful view of the Golden gate Bridge and San Francisco skyline. Take photos here!!!

Bike across the bridge on a clear day for best views of the city and the bridge . Driving across is a pain.

Amazing, but view is better from the other side

Great view at any time of the day and with any weather!!!

Don't stop at the bottom, take the road further up the hill . Less crowd and better photos!

This place is really nice. You have a view of the whole bay and all the suroundings. Its a kodax momument. Enjoy!

Gorgeous views

Park down the hill off the bridge and walk up. Otherwise you will be stuck behind tour buses .

Awesome! I want come here at day.

Perfect place to check out the view , use the bathroom , and take lots of pictures.

Great SF Skyline and Golden Bridge view !

nice point to view golden gate bridge????

It's crowded up here- you can't stand in a spot to try and reserve it...I will run ya over ;)

Excellent view of San Francisco!!!

Definite spot to view the golden gate from the battery.

Take the stairs Down to get to the other side of the bridge . Don't be startled by the rumbling sounds!

Must visit for locals & tourists !

Worth the climb. Beautiful views when not foggy! Is usually very windy, though, so have a jacket/sweater.

Excellent view of the Bridge , Perfect to take pictures...

It's fun to take a walk across the Golden Gate on a nice day to get here and back.
