Pinnacles National Monument about 2 hours drive south of the Bay Area is a very interesting place to go hiking. The view are beautiful, and it is a little challenging to hike there without being dangerous. I have visited the monument on several occasions.

The peak loop trail is probably the most popular |
But it can be very tight. |

Well, it is not too bad when you get closer |
