Mill Valley / Sausalito Bike Path

 My youngest and I recently took a drive down to Mill Valley and walked the multi-use trail that I used to cycle all the time when I lived in Sausalito.   It was a lovely, sunny Sunday, and she was in the mood for a long drive and listening to her favorite music.  I chose this because I knew I could park at an EV charging station and power up while we were walking.   

I love this trail for the birding opportunities.  While we walked it, I believe it is better on a bike. You can go a lot farther and it branches off to Corte Madera and Tiburon.  We essentially walked from Hauke Park in Mill Valley (where there are EV chargers) to Sausalito and back - about 7 miles.  It is very scenic with Mt. Tamalpais in the back ground and wetlands all around.  

The trail was quite crowded with cyclists of all varieties:  serious cyclists, tourists that rented bikes, families with little ones.  The whole gamit!  Everyone was very well behaved in navigating each other, and there was even a bicycle traffic circle in Mill Valley.  Leashed dogs are welcome on the trail.

We enjoyed strolling through the house boat communities in Sausalito, getting a gelato bar at a convenience store at the base of the trail, and trying to identify the may sea birds we saw.

It was a lovely walk, but I think next time I will choose to ride a bike!
