Ever walked the entire span of the Golden Gate Bridge?
Join us on Saturday, October 19, 2019 as we take a brisk approximately four-mile round trip trek across the most iconic bridge in the world. Learn some great tips and secret tricks to snap some awesome unique images of the bridge,the city, the Marin Headlands and the San Francisco Bay.
We’ll meet at 10am sharp at the Golden Gate Bridge Welcome Center then begin our walk across the most bridge (we’ll take photos of the bridge from the SF side when we get back). It’ll be about an hour to transverse the bridge into Sausalito. We’ll stop for shots at the Golden Gate Bridge Vista Point before walking back across the bridge.
