Marin County is a paradise for outdoor recreation - with weather that allows visitors and residents to enjoy mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, and sailing all year round. But it's also a wonderful place to do next to nothing at all.
Marin County’s lands represent outstanding examples of Northern California environments including oak-bay woodlands, savannas, grasslands and salt marshes. These habitats are managed and protected to enhance their natural, undeveloped character while accommodating educational activities and trail-oriented uses. Outdoor recreation – hiking, running, mountain biking, horseback riding, and all manner of water sports including sail boarding, surfing, fishing, boating, kayaking, and canoeing – is what Marin County is all about. Additionally, seasonal phenomena like the migration of whales, bird watching, garden tours, and wildlife and scenic painting and photography are unique features of Marin. Aside from the natural side, there is also baseball, golf, and the raceway.
Some of Marin’s most exhilarating outdoor destinations:
National Parks, including Muir Woods National Monument and Point Reyes National Seashore
State Parks, including Mt. Tamalpais, China Camp, and Angel Island
Golden Gate National Recreation Area, including Marin Headlands, Muir Beach, and Stinson Beach.
Marin County's Department of Parks & Open Space offers seasonal trips and events for both families and individuals. View the Summer 2017 Ranger Events for outdoor ideas.
Midweek excursions in the late Fall through early Spring seasons offer some of the most advantageous opportunities to enjoy Marin’s great outdoors. While doing so, please be respectful of our environmental treasures. Contact or visit the various park services to help you tread lightly.
Beaches in Marin County
Marin has a variety of beaches, great for beachcombing, tide-pooling, wave-watching, bird watching, sun bathing, kayaking, and boating. The weather at these beaches can change considerably during the course of the day. Wear layers that you can add and remove as the temperature drops and rises.
Swimming conditions vary by location. Prior to entering the water, please check with park rangers, park personnel, or lifeguards about conditions and always obey the posted warnings.

Mountain Biking and Road Cycling
Enjoy Road Biking in Marin…
Marin is crisscrossed by hundreds of miles cyclist-friendly roads and multi-use pathways. Simply following the street markers will put you on the path to Marin’s charming towns and meeting places. You’ll find hillsides offering captivating views of the surrounding woodlands, waterways, and distant cityscapes.
Mountain Biking
Marin County's Mount Tamalpais (Mt. Tam) is the birthplace of mountain biking. In the early 1970s Joe Breeze, Gary Fisher, Otis Guy and Charlie Kelly began refurbishing old balloon tire bicycles from the 1930s and 40s to use for riding off-road. Between 1977 and 1978 Joe built 10 frames which were the first successful frames designed and built for use as mountain bikes; he called them "Breezers."
Mountain biking has become a huge sport, and Marin County is ringed with mountain bicycle trails. Those who enjoy the sport can travel through natural wild lands including the Mt. Tam woodlands, coastal bluffs at Pt. Reyes National Seashore, single track trails overlooking San Pablo Bay at China Camp State Park, and ridgeline trails on Mt. Burdell in Novato. Bikers can even tour historic Angel Island on trails that circle the island. The abundant variety of trees, wildflowers, grasslands, ridgelines, and rugged coastline make Marin's mountain bike trails a sought-after experience.
Road Cycling
Many popular cycling routes begin in Fairfax, a well-known meeting point for a 17-mile climb up the 2,500-foot Mount Tam (Mount Tamalpais). The challenging ascent takes riders through woodlands before connecting with a ridgeline road with stunning views of the Pacific and eventually a magnificent view of the San Francisco skyline. Fairfax is also the gateway to the rolling hills of rural West Marin. Among the major destinations are Pt. Reyes (a 50-mile round trip) and Tomales, from which riders often take the coast highway to Pt. Reyes before making their way back to Fairfax.
If you’re visiting Marin from San Francisco, drive or cycle north across the Golden Gate Bridge and continue through Sausalito to Mill Valley, Corte Madera, Ross, San Anselmo, and finally to Fairfax. Return to the city by bike or on the Larkspur ferry (check the schedule before heading out).

Wildflowers of Marin
Each year, thousands of wildflower enthusiasts converge upon the Marin Headlands to experience the park’s spectacular floral display. Long recognized as a Bay Area botanical hotspot, the Marin Headland’s ridges, valleys, meadows, and sand dunes are carpeted with blooms of every hue and color from late winter to late autumn.
Photo Credits: www.marincountyparks.org
Marin County is home to a number of rare wildflowers, many of which are found in the county’s 33 open space preserves, the Golden Gate National Recreation area and the Point Reyes Seashore. Ring Mountain Preserve’s unique geology and microclimate provide a home for a number of rare plants. The Tiburon Mariposa Lily is found on the upper slopes of Ring Mountain and nowhere else on earth. Spring wildflowers on the trailhead from Paradise Drive to the top of the preserve are breath-taking.
As you enjoy the wildflowers, please remember that you may be in a national park, and natural and cultural resources are protected by law. Do not pick the wildflowers!
The 117-acre Old St. Hilary’s Preserve in Tiburon is the only place to see the extremely rare Tiburon Jewelflower. This odd member of the mustard family, usually seen in mid-May, has dark maroon petals that appear almost black. Other rare plants like the Dirca Occidentalis grow naturally only in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Marin County has five or six known small populations of this wildflower that are associated with basaltic greenstone rocks in a mixed evergreen forest. White Wakerobin can be found in the northern part of the Pt. Reyes Peninsula.
Patches of serpentine soil in the Loma Alta Preserve provide one of the best late-season wildflower displays in the county. Douglas Iris can be spotted in the Bald Hill Preserve, and the Bush Monkeyflower and Dwarf Checkermallow inhabit the Camino Alto Preserve.
The below resources give information on the many species of wildflowers that grow in Marin County and where they can be found: The Marin County Open Space District’s website lists all of the open space preserves in the county and describes the plants and animals that can be found there. Please visit www.marincountyparks.org for more information.
The Marin Branch of the California Native Plant Society provides information on Marin County’s rare plants and field trips. Please visit www.marin.edu/cnps for more information.
