Twin Peaks (San Francisco)

The Twin Peaks are two prominent hills with an elevation of about 925 feet (282 m)[1] located near the geographic center of San Francisco, California.

The Twin Peaks are the second and third highest natural points in San Francisco; only 928 foot (283 m) Mount Davidson is higher within city limits.

[citation needed] Before the arrival of the Europeans, the native Ohlone people may have used Twin Peaks as a lookout or hunting ground.

In 2016 the SFMTA introduced a traffic calming pilot to reduce the amount of space allocated to cars and make the summit area more inviting to a wider range of travel modes.

It is part of the 31 acres (13 ha) Twin Peaks Natural Area,[8] managed and owned by the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department.

[9] There is no public transportation all the way to the top of the Peaks, but the 37 Corbett Muni line stops on Crestline Drive near a path up the hill.
