    Devils Gulch Creek to Taylors Grave Site, Marin County, CA, USA
    Follow Bills Trail clockwise to the top and return the same route. The loop involves a steep exposed fire road which is not as delightful as Bills.

    One of my all time favorite Easy San Francisco / Golden Gate Bridge view hikes. Sweeping ocean views, varied terrain, and plenty of stairs to give you a workout. You can loop around going on the bottom trail one way, then come back by the upper trail and pass by the Legion of Honor and the Golf Course. Beautiful both ways!

    In December 2018 there is minimal water in the creeks after recent light rains. Trails are somewhat muddy and portions may be slippery.
