Editorial Review for Dolores Park – by Marcie Holmes
In Short
Parking is limited around this cheery neighborhood oasis, so a romantic stroll from the 16th Street BART Station or a tandem bike rental is a popular way to get there. Sunbathers and locals looking for a break lay down blankets and picnics on the 18th Street side, away from the popular playground, which is frequented by families from the surrounding blocks. The hill at the top of the park offers its greatest asset: a sublimely peaceful view of downtown.

User Reviews for Dolores Park

On top of the hill, you can see probably one of the best views of San Francisco. All the buildings, bridges and lights are seen from up here. Plus, it's free. Just be careful not to step on any dog poo, as lots of dogs come here to play with their owners (they're all nice and friendly though, so no worries).
Pros: Fantastic View, Free
