Starting at the Noe Valley Branch Library, explore the southeastern edge of Rancho San Miguel. This walk highlights the agricultural and industrial history of Noe Valley and its heights, from Billy Goat Hill through Fairmount Heights to the east side of Twin Peaks. We walk along sites of former dairies and quarries, through early and modernist residential developments, along Slow Streets and up and down staircases, and more. Be prepared for steep slopes and great views!

Reservations required. Email shaping@foundsf.org or call the Noe Valley Branch Library at 415-355-5707.
