Mountain Lake Park
Mountain Lake is located on the Presidio’s southern border just east of Park Presidio Boulevard (Highway 1) near the intersection of 10th Avenue and Lake Street. Beautiful Mountain Lake is being enhanced through a partnership project led by the Presidio Trust, the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy, the National Park Service, and community volunteers. The project is improving the lake’s health, restoring natural areas, and creating new amenities for visitors such as trails and benches.
