Lands End, Cape in San Francisco, United States.

Located at the westernmost point of San Francisco, Lands End extends into the Pacific Ocean with steep cliffs and coastal trails along the shoreline.

The Yelamu Ohlone tribe established seasonal settlements at Lands End before 1776, utilizing the area's natural resources for fishing and hunting marine animals.

The 1897 legal case Harris vs. Sutro at Lands End marked a significant victory against racial segregation when John Harris successfully challenged the whites-only policy.

Multiple hiking paths connect the Sutro Baths ruins to the Cliff House, offering direct views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the Pacific Ocean.

The old steam train line, constructed by Adolph Sutro in the 1880s, transported passengers from downtown San Francisco to Lands End for five cents.
