California's Lost Coast is a remote stretch of coastline in southern Humboldt and northern Mendocino counties. The 60+ mile coastline includes sandy and rocky beaches to the north and mountains plunging into the ocean to the south. Rugged mountains border the entire coast.

Once upon a time a train went to the top of Mount Tam and you could take an engine free "gravity railroad" back down. This is a short, easy hike that follows this old gravity railroad path. Getting there is also easy, even if you rely on public transportation.

The Marin Headlands Loop is a spectacular hike through one of the Bay Area's most scenic areas. It offers enough of a challenge to keep you working and enough casual strolls along ridge lines and valley floors to relax your muscles.
