The Tennessee Valley Trail from the parking lot to the Tennessee Beach cove is approximately 1.7 miles (or 2.8 kilometers) and the easy hike to the beach takes around 30 minutes.
This popular trail on the Marin Headlands gets very busy, particularly at weekends, so arriving early is always advisable. Dogs are not permitted on the trail.
The parking lot and trailhead are located at the end of Tennessee Valley Road, where there are restrooms and a picnic table, but no drinking water, so bring a drink with you.
