Fort Funston is part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA) and is operated under the authority of the National Park Service. It is a popular shared-use park where dogs have room to run, wrestle, and fetch and is listed as one of the best places to walk a dog in California. Fort Funston is large enough to accomodate many recreational users - horseback riders, hang gliders, hikers, bikers, bird watchers, or families out for a stroll. Many people like to watch the world-class hang gliders from the observation platform.
Fort Funston is an unusual piece of Park Service property. For many years it was under the control of the Department of Defense. During this time large gun emplacements were built for coastal defense, Nike missiles were installed, non-native plant species (such as ice plant and trees) were cultivated as camouflage, and so forth. Many remants of these activities remain, although many of the concrete installations have slipped down the cliffs and onto the beach. |
