Hike all of SF Post 3: The Philosopher's Way

Philosopher's Way Hikes I decided to head to McLaren Park to do a hike called the "Philosopher's Way." There are Philosopher's Walks or Philosopher's Ways in many cities such as Heidelberg , Toronto , and Kyoto .Their goal is to provide an opportunity to walk, ponder, and meditate. About McLaren Park McLaren Park is the second largest park in the city after Golden Gate Park. It's less central, and as a result, less visited, however, it still houses a number of appealing points of interest including seven miles of walking trails,
