Cal • March 29, 2012Hike the hill, and get a view of the new stadium, campus, and the Golden Gate. You gotta love the Bay Area.

David S. • September 16, 2011In the winter you can get a great shot of the sunset behind the Golden Gate Bridge. You'll need a long lens and a tripod. Move back and forth until you get a pleasing composition.

Alex M. • March 2, 2012The bike/ped bridge connects the sf bay trail and Berkeley marina to downtown Berkeley, 6th st commercial dist. And the Channing way bicycle boulevard to downtown.

Rebecca W. • November 24, 2010Just don't wear any red, or you'll get yelled at until you leave. You'll also smell plenty of alcohol and weed. But the people are nice and help you up and down the hill. Wear shoes with grip.
