Two of Our Favorite Marin Hikes

February 3, 2011

Enjoying Ring Mountain in Corte Madera and Tiburon

One of our favorite neighborhood walks in Corte Madera is the Ring Mountain Nature Preserve that separates Corte Madera and Tiburon. The view of the Bay, Mt. Tamalpais, and San Francisco are spectacular, particularly after a rain has washed the air clear.

You can start your walk from the top of Koch Road along Highway 101, at the top of Endeavour Drive (Paradise Drive to Prince Royal to Endeavor), the top of Robin Drive or Taylor Lane, or at the open space trail head a little further south on Paradise Drive. Here is Tracy Dunham’s account of a ring Mountain walk, from the Marin Independent Journal.

The Magic of Steep Ravine, Mount Tamalpias State Park

With its rushing creeks and waterfalls, Steep Ravine trail on Mt. Tamalpais provides a magical springtime hike. These recent photos from our friend and client Michael Serecsko tell more than we can describe about this experience.  Tracy Dunham describes a Steep Ravine hike in the Marin Independent Journal.

For the more adventuresome, choose a day with a full moon, and plan to hike down Steep Ravine to reach Stinson Beach early in the evening. I have done this several times, enjoying a beer at the Sand Dollar Restaurant, and then hiking back up in the bright moonlight. Not recommended for everyone, but a delightful experience.

Exploring the Waterfront Town of Sausalito⛵️

Owning Sausalito real estate is like living on the French Riviera. Only minutes to the Golden Gate Bridge, Sausalito residents enjoy the charm of this seaside town and the sophistication of San Francisco. Sausalito has striking vistas of San Francisco to the south and San Francisco Bay and Mt Tamalpais to the east and north.

Sausalito was settled by Europeans who appreciated the unique setting. Before the Golden Gate Bridge, Sausalito was a stopping place for sailing ships to buy wood from the hillsides and fresh water from its mountain springs. Today, Sausalito real estate provides a mix of houses, from restored Victorians to cozy condos. And, there is a unique community of about 600 houseboats on Richardson Bay that range from funky to spacious and elegant.
