This is a destination with plenty of compositions to be had. There are multiple pull offs and parking areas along Conzelman Road with perfect views of the Golden Gate bridge and the Bay Area.
This view in particular is past the roudabout, but before the big parking lot up top. Do yourself a favor and try every stop you can for all the different angles!
