Lands End, Cape in San Francisco, United States.

Lands End is a rocky, windswept cape at the mouth of the Golden Gate, between the Sutro District and Lincoln Park. Its Coastal Trail follows the former railbed of the Cliff House Railway along the cliffs. Near the shore stand the ruins of the Sutro Baths, with exposed concrete foundations and a dark rectangular pool behind a low barrier.

The Yelamu Ohlone lived at Lands End before Spanish settlement began in 1776. After the gold rush, entrepreneurs built the Cliff House as a resort and a private company laid Point Lobos Avenue; by the 1860s a horse-drawn stagecoach ran every Sunday from downtown. In the 1880s Adolph Sutro built a passenger steam train from downtown to Lands End for a 5¢ fare.

The name comes from the cape's position at the northwest edge of the city, above the Golden Gate. The Yelamu Ohlone lived here before Spanish settlement in 1776. Visitors can look for the memorial to the cruiser USS San Francisco at the southern end of the park's Coastal Trail section, and shipwrecks visible at low tide from the trail and Mile Rock.

The trails are free to access and can become slippery in fog or stormy weather. Wear sturdy shoes and take care during rough conditions, as winds here can be quite strong and the ground uneven.

In 1891 the miner Charles Jackson claimed to have found bituminous coal beneath the cliffs at Dead Man's Point, on Adolph Sutro's land. Sutro had a tunnel dug 200 feet under the railroad track and confirmed the seam, but the coal was never mined. The story survives mainly in accounts of the park's history.
