The Barbary Coast Trail

Downtown / North Beach / Chinatown · streets · Free

I have walked the entire trail and I walk sections of it regularly. The medallions are subtle — you have to be looking down. That is appropriate.

A self-guided walking trail marked with bronze medallions embedded in the sidewalk, tracing the original Barbary Coast from the Ferry Building to City Hall. Eight miles, twenty sites.
