Tiny labyrinth at the end of the trail. Great place to view Golden Gate Bridge. There's no proper trail to go down to the labyrinth, need a good hiking boot read more

I came here on 4/23/2025 and to my surprise there was a labyrinth but it was a small one. The previous times I had been to Lands End, I was never able to see one due to vandalism so I'm not sure where the other labyrinths were located. This labyrinth was hidden on a cliff above Mile Rock Beach. To get to this labyrinth, start at the Lands End parking lot and make your way onto the trail. Follow the signs to Mile Rock Beach. Keep an eye for some wooden stairs going down that are on the left of the trail. Continue going all the way down the stairs until you can see Mile Rock Beach from atop. Don't take the stairs down to the beach. There is trail on the right that you can take. Follow it and it will take you to the cliff where the labyrinth is. Hopefully it is still there. Once you're done with the labyrinth, you have 2 options. 1) You can take the trail back to the beach and go back up the stairs you came in from when you're done. 2) Continue walking the trail along the cliff and it will eventually lead you back to the bottom of the first set of stairs. You can take these stairs back onto the main trail. read more

aMAZEing views Aside from the obvious tourist attractions, this tops the short list of must-sees in the city, especially considering it is unaffected by the pandemic and the only poop you'll see is inhuman and the only needles are falling from trees. The rock maze is not really that amazing, but it seems to delight and engage all ages as a quirky detour along the nicest coastal hike in the city. With views of the Golden Gate in the background, the circular maze is a cool little photo OP. Especially for dishonest and very short Instagram influencers who can claim they're at Stonehenge. Lands End Rocks!! read more

Since it's no longer there, there were no signs about the Labyrinth but I was still determined to reach it. After conquering my minor fear of falling, I finally reached it. Sad the art is no longer there but it was still peaceful. read more

I specifically hiked Lands End to see the labyrinth. I've probably seen it twice before, but that was many years ago. My friend later told me that labyrinths represent the journey of the soul from beginning to end and man, I love the meaning behind that. I parked in the Sutro Baths parking lot (good luck!) and got on the trail. About 35 minutes in (depending on how fast you walk), you will see a sign that says Coastal Trail - Mile Rock Beach where you will see stairs descending down. Take those stairs (it's about a 10 minute walk down) and you will see a beach. Make a right and there is a trail leading you all the way to the labyrinth made of rocks. On a sunny day, you can see the Golden Gate Bridge in the background. It was foggy and cloudy (typical Inner Sunset weather) the day I went, but it was still nice to be out there pondering life looking out into the ocean. You can also climb nearby rocks to get an aerial view of the labyrinth and of course, the ocean, beach, and the Golden Gate Bridge. You can also get here by parking at the Lands End Lookout area (GPS it). It will take about the same amount of time as if you had started the hike from the Sutro Baths parking lot. The hike is pretty flat except for some steps you have to hike up. There are lots of routes you can take, too, so of course this can change. Beautiful and scenic views all around! I highly recommend hiking here! read more

Lands End Labyrinth - The beginning of the trail. - Public Art Near Me - San Francisco, California

If you are adventurous and love the outdoors, you have to do the Lands End Labyrinth. The hike isn't difficult but it is tricky. If you've never done it before and don't know where its at or how to get there, map it out first because signal does drop. The views of the Golden Gate are amazing. The labyrith itself is cool and makes for great pictures. Be it selfies or group. Make sure to wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Also, maybe a hat if you olan on doing it during the day - plus water. Remember to be courteous to others and be patient. Most of the hike down is not wide enough for people to make the trek side by side. Also, people will stop and take pictures - primarily in the same spots. Offer to help take pics and they'll most likely do the same. read more

Very fun spot to check out. I went back in November and the rocks were arranged in a maze you could walk through. There's also a small cliff above you can climb up to and take pictures overhead. Just be quick with your pictures and be mindful of the other people around you. Unfortunately, this formation has been vandalized recently, so hopefully the artist will rebuild again. read more

Beautiful hike. Theres so many different paths and parts of this hike that youre always pleasantly surprised when you reach a new part. Sutro Bath was really cool to see if you walk down some stairs. The labyrinth was awesome and cool to take pictures with. Overall a great hike and you can decide how long or short you want the trail to be. Theres a great parking lot so dont have to stress over street parking. We also bumped into a golfcourse so thats an option for an activity as well! read more

The labyrinth is a beautiful scenic outlook that overlooks the Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge, and is composed of a collection of rocks in the shape of a circular maze. While the rock collection is less impressive than the name "labyrinth" would suggest, it still makes for beautiful photo ops and some fun trying to walk to the center of the maze. The detour to the labyrinth can be tough, since there are many steep stairs to get down there, and then the hike back up the stairs may give you some thigh soreness the next morning. However, it was good exercise! The trip down and back to see the labyrinth took us about 20 minutes total. read more

I live about 10 minutes away from here. They say the best things in life are free. Or you come here sometimes to visualize my goals, read books, expand my mind, get fresh air, play my music really loud, park right in front so I can watch the sunset. Sometimes, I even stand out of My sunroof that's panoramic and feel like a king in love every second of the Pacific coast. read more

The hike wasn't really hard at all, there was many steps and of course always be careful! I believe we can all do it, I wore knee high boots because I really wanted to go and it was my last day. The view was breathe taking because you see the Golden Gate Bridge. Nature was all around, when you get here you next to miles beach. I wouldn't run into the water for the beach, but a scroll will be nice. read more

Great hike for stunning views and peace at the Labyrinth. Note: you should take the time to go to the Sutra Bath Ruins then walk the trail to the Labyrinth. We were staying at the Grand Hyatt Union Square. We did not have a car. The public bus transportation was right at our hotel, an easy ride cross town. Bring water, a light jacket (gets windy) and comfortable walking shoes. A site not to miss! read more

Another great spot to check out the view of the Golden Gate Bridge and the bay. And of course, the Lands End Labyrinth itself is pretty cool and gives you a sense of peaceful (even with a ton people walking around it tryna get the perfect IG picture). BEST WAY TO THE LABYRINTH My friend and I took Indigo M's review advice and took a short cut to get here. So you could technically park at the beginning of Lands End and take the trail from there according to other reviews, but people complain it's a long trek. Soooo what we did was: - Park at the Holocaust Memorial, which is right at the corner of 34th St. and El Camino del Mar. - Next, we walked down the street and there you'll see a sign that says Legion of Honor, follow this path down through the golf course, you'll hit a fork in the path, make a left passing the golfer's teeing off on the left of you. - Eventually you'll come across a gate, just walk around it and bam you're at Lands End trail. - Make a right, and then pretty much start following everyone (there's a high chance everyone is going to the same place lol). - The next task is making it down 75+ stairs and finally you'll see the opening to the beach. Make another right and you'll see the infamous stones that are laid out in a maze pattern. It'll probably take 20 mins (depending on how fast or slow you walk), but completely doable! Also, just be careful exploring the Labyrinth because it's at the edge of the cliff. There's also a cool rock to climb onto where you can get some pretty dope aerial shots of the Labyrinth. And don't forget to appreciate the view! So with that said, good luck! read more

Nice simple short walk from the trail head of Land's End. Serene area with a great view towards north bay and Marin. This trail is a bit more touristy than I would like. But the short walk makes this cliff a nice addition to the Land's End trail walk. read more

It's a fairly easy hike to get here (although you have to go down a fairly steep incline to get there, and going back up is a little harder), and it's well worth it for the views of the bridge and water. The rock formation itself is cool as well, and makes for some cool photos. It's pretty easy to find but if you're using GPS maps to find it, make sure you have it pre-loaded on your phone, because depending on your phone carrier you might lose cell service (I have AT&T and didn't have service there). It's a gorgeous place, even on a foggy day. read more

Love this spot. Every SINGLE time I come to Lands End - I always make my way over here. The staircase going down is steep but nothing you can't handle, I'm sure. At the bottom of the staircase - you can either go straight, left or right. Go straight through the trees - walk cautiously by the cliff-edge - walk down some rocks - walk up some rocks & Lo' & behold there is the Labyrinth. I have walked it - I have ran it, you can do either one. In the middle of the Labyrinth are random assortment of stuff that people leave there. There are fishermen there in the early morning - great to watch them as they catch fish. The view of the bay & the GG Bridge is GORGEOUS - per usual. I totally recommend for anyone who is able to stop by Lands End - you will not be disappointed. read more

The labyrinth rocks were way smaller than I had expected. The rocks looked gigantic in pictures I've seen. But it's basically a small patch of concentric circle of rocks on the side of a cliff with a good view of the Golden Gate Bridge on a sunny day. You can also get a good view of the rocks from atop if you climb on top of the rocks overlooking the labyrinth rocks. The rocks can be moved since they are placed on top of the dirt. Don't be the douchbag who messes them up! Very nice and serene place to clear your mind and enjoy some peace if there aren't too many people around. read more

What a lovely spot for a Samhain meditation. This spot was recommended to me by an advisor and it was perfect. Well...except one thing... TOURISTS (and others): When people are slowly walking the circle with their eyes closed and talking to themselves, THEY ARE MEDITATING! I wouldn't run through your church or cemetery taking pictures, knocking over things, and talking loudly. Have some respect for the fact its a MEDITATION LABYRINTH and do what you need to do with quiet, reverence, and respect. Just because it is outdoors in a public space doesn't make it any less sacred. Those in charge: Please put up a sign asking visitors to respect those who may be meditating and not to run through knocking stones out of place. I know its a shame you have to, but you have to. Thank you. read more

Great way to relax and ponder a question. Go left down the trail at the trash bins and then up the cliff side. Windy! So be careful

This is a part of the Land's end trail which is the Land's end labyrinth. It overlooks the Golden Gate bridge and the pacific ocean. You can also see the cargo ships going in and out the bay. A labyrinth maze even though it sounds scary, is really a nice slow walk following the maze into the center. It is know to be a peaceful walk full of positive energy. So don't do back flips or listen to your musics people. Keep calm, think about the positive things in life and take deep, long breathes and be grateful for what has come and what has yet to come. As you take this minute long journey reaching the center, leave a part of you as you take the memories of this place. Also take a jacket or you are going to be the most peaceful icicle in the world read more

BE PREPARED TO HIKE! From Lands End, it is a mile walk to the Labyrinth. It may be tricky to find this, but follow the signs to MILE ROCK BEACH! When you find the beach with a lot of rocks, you just have to walk the path on the side of the cliff that leads up to the labyrinth. I thought the labyrinth was going to be at shore but it's actually up the cliff! Once you reach the top, you'll get an amazing view of the Golden Gate Bridge!! It is a well worth hike for this magnificent view! read more

It's back. A meditative experience, with a nice view of the Golden Gate Bridge and the coast line. Walk through it slowly and intentionally. There are no signs to this unofficial landmark. It's accessible from Land's End Trail but there are no signs that point to it. You'd have to know to go down the sandy steps and keep going until you either hit the beach below (and come back up to the labyrinth), or stay on the path to a high point and carefully navigate your way down to the labyrinth. There's also a shortcut to Land's End Trail from the Legion of Honor (at 34th Ave and El Camino Del Mar / Lincoln Highway)--follow the paved golf cart trail, through the golf course, until the barrier; from there you'll see Land's End Trail, past the big eucalyptus trees. WARNING: Part of the labyrinth's outer ring is dangerously close to the edge of the cliff. Be careful. read more

Walk through the Labyrinth, concentrate, become one with the world. This is an art piece that is comprised of a maze of rocks.

I thought it would be bigger. Pictures can be deceiving. Nice and peaceful though, even though I came on a busy Sunday

The first time i hiked to the labyrinth, in February, it was an amazing experience, it was quiet and it felt as if i was off the grid. I returned to the labyrinth around Thanksgiving time and it was extremely busy and felt more like a tourist attraction. The busyness wasn't the issue for me, it was the lack of respect people had that were meditating in the labyrinth. I saw a man walking in the labyrinth and a woman came into the circle and stopped him, and asked him, if he could stop for a second and take a picture of her and some other people. Also, parents were letting their children run through and across the labyrinth and children were moving the rocks around. I probably won't return here again unless it's a rainy day. read more

I went when it was like ~7AM and it wasn't busy. It's so beautiful! The view of the bridge is 100% perfect. Overall, this place is great and the hike is short and easy and def worth it!
