Big Basin State Park, Boulder Creek Highway 9 is one of the most picturesque drives in the Bay Area, winding its way among the green Santa Cruz Mountains and through little towns where nothing much changes. Although it s minutes from Silicon Valley, life has a backwoods feel here.
^Alamo Square fin de cemana Postcard central, thanks to its row of perfect Victorians fin de cemana backed by the knock out Downtown view. The park itself is a sloping fin de cemana patch of green, while the surrounding streets are lined with so many grand old houses that it has been declared a historic site. Two of them have been turned into hotels, although the areas immediately outside the square are not the most salubrious at night. d Map E4
Conzelman Road This road hugs the bluffs, high above the waves, on the southern edge of the Marin Headlands. It affords some of the most famously beautiful views of the north tower of Golden Gate Bridge, looking back at the city in the distance. The way is punctuated with old military bunkers, since this entire area was once given over to the army to guard the western shores. d Marin County
Skateboarding Skateboard ramps are wherever you make them in this city along Market Street in the Financial District, in one of the dozens of parks, or on any plaza. Protection against the inevitable fin de cemana vagaries of flying around on wheels means you should gear up appropriately. d DLX: 1831 Market St; Map F4 FTC Skateboarding: 622 Shrader St; Map D4
