Embark on a scenic racebike journey along the San Francisco Bay Trail to Treasure Island. This easy 22.7-mile (36.6 km) route offers a pleasant ride, gaining 588 feet (179 metres) in elevation over approximately 1 hour and 52 minutes. As you pedal, you'll be treated to expansive views of the East Bay and the San Francisco skyline, especially from the Bay Bridge. Look for the observation pier, built from the old bridge's foundations, which provides unique vantage points of the bay.
When planning your ride, remember the trail segment across the bridge and down to Treasure Island is open daily from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. A 15 mph speed limit is in place to ensure everyone's safety. Be aware that the descent from Yerba Buena Island to Treasure Island via Macalla Road is very steep, with grades between 17-20%, making it quite challenging for cyclists. This downhill section currently shares lanes with cars.
This route connects the East Bay directly to Treasure Island, offering a distinct perspective of the region. Once you reach Treasure Island, you can continue to enjoy views of San Francisco and the bay from the paths along the western and northern sides of the island. Don't miss the Treasure Island - San Francisco Skyline Vista Point for a memorable photo opportunity, capturing the iconic city backdrop.
