Lands End is a park in San Francisco within the larger Golden Gate National Recreation Area.

Other historic sites include numerous shipwrecks, which are visible at low tides from the Coastal Trail and Mile Rock.

During the 1880s, millionaire Adolph Sutro constructed a passenger steam train from downtown to Lands End for the affordable fare of 5¢.

[4][5] The Lands End unit of Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA) is adjacent to Lincoln Park, a San Francisco city park that includes a city-owned golf course and the Legion of Honor Museum, as well as the Fort Miley Military Reservation, which largely consists of the San Francisco VA Medical Center.

The coastline of the Lands End area includes several promontories that have historically been of importance in navigation in the approach to the Golden Gate.

[7][8] Along the Coastal Trail at Lands End, local artist Eduardo Aguilera constructed a "hidden labyrinth" overlooking Golden Gate Bridge in 2004.
