Mount Sutro Open Space Reserve is an ecological oasis in the heart of San Francisco. UCSF owns and manages 61 acres of Mount Sutro and San Francisco Recreation & Parks manages 20 acres on the east side as the open space reaches Stanyan Street. Mount Sutro Open Space currently has over 5.5 miles of multi-use trail, cared for and built predominantly by volunteers. Sutro Stewards works in collaboration with UCSF to maintain and manage the trails, habitat restoration and conservation sites, and an on-site native plant nursery on the university's 61 acres.

 

Come out to Mount Sutro for a walk, run, hike, or bike ride and enjoy this exceptional place. Come back for a volunteer event to work on trail, habitat, and nursery projects, or join us on a guided tour in spring and summer to learn more about the plants, history, and habitat found here.
