The SF Peninsula is full of outdoor experiences. Here are some of the best hiking trails to take this weekend if you are looking to get outside to enjoy some fresh air 🌱

⛰️ Devil's Slide Trail overlooks the Pacific Ocean and offers beautiful coastal views and sunsets. The trail is fairly short at 1.3 miles, but very rewarding in regards to the view. The path is more hilly than flat, so it is a great place to work on cardio while being cooled by the fresh ocean air.

⛰️ Located between San Bruno and Pacifica, Sweeney Ridge is a popular hiking spot for locals and visitors alike. After making it up the incline, you will be rewarded with a 360-degree view of the San Francisco Bay Area and along the ocean coast as far as Point Reyes.

⛰️ Sam McDonald Park represents a contrast between two separate natural environments. The northwestern half between Pescadero Road and Highway 84 is principally a lush growth redwood forest, while the southeastern half is a primarily open ridge with grassy knolls and patchy brush areas.

As remote work continues to reshape our professional landscape, the question remains: what's your home office vibe?

Or do you thrive in a light and bright environment, surrounded by airy whites and sunlit corners?
