Twin Peaks, Hilltop viewpoint in central San Francisco, United States.

Twin Peaks consists of two adjacent hills rising 925 feet above sea level, forming the second and third highest natural points in San Francisco.

Spanish settlers in the 18th century named the area Los Pechos de la Chola before its designation as Twin Peaks under American control.

The hills maintain natural habitats supporting the Mission Blue butterfly population, native plants, brush rabbits, and numerous bird species.

The north peak parking area provides vehicle access, while multiple trails extend across 64 acres of parkland for hiking and wildlife observation.

The Christmas Tree Point observation area sits 70 feet below the North Peak, offering views extending to Cobb Mountain and Santa Ana Mountain.
