The crooked streets and hidden stairways of Bernal Heights have a wild charm. Green like Ireland in winter, the hill acquires a golden hue as summer and fall advance. From Precita to Cortland, there's a great mix of walking, vistas and shops.

Sightseeing

The Castro has great history and ambience, with nice cafes and stores. Watch a movie at the Castro Theater, but first stop by at the wonderful hardware and more store next door.

Consejos para la ciudad

Facilidad para moverse por la casa

Jump on an electric bike!

Get the Lyft or Jump app and hop on / off at various docking stations in the city. There's one near the house, on Precita Park.
Qué debes empacar

Layers!

Dress like an onion: your outerlayer is a packable down jacket or medium weight sweater. I sound like my mom...

Get on any ferry line and enjoy the salt air and beautiful views. The Embarcadero Ferry Building is where locals take their ferries to and from the city. In addition to the the great location, there are great stores, restaurants, bakeries and more. Good for rainy days too.
