More About Larkspur

Halfway between Sausalito and San Rafael and nestled between Mt. Tamalpais and the Bay, you will find the beautiful historic town of Larkspur. Formed in 1908, this upper middle class community is over 100 years old.

Downtown Larkspur is officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is reminiscent of towns of the turn-of-the-century. The residents have been quite successful in preserving the small-town, family-friendly ambiance. An annual favorite is the 4th of July Parade that goes down Magnolia Avenue through downtown. Today Magnolia Avenue, Larkspur’s “Main Street,” is lined with trendy shops, cafés and restaurants. Many historic buildings remain including the beautifully-restored Lark Theater. Some of my favorite Larkspur establishments are Gia Ristorante, Perry’s, Emporio Rulli, Picco and R’noh Thai to name a few.

There is no shortage of hiking and biking in Larkspur, which serves as a key stop along the mostly-completed North-South Greenway connecting Marin from the Golden Gate bridge in the south to Novato in the north. The well-used Larkspur-Corte Madera Path is a key segment of this path. Hikers enjoy the King Mountain open space, a 108-acre preserve on the hills above Larkspur. One of my favorites is the Baltimore Canyon hike off of Madrone Avenue. In short, Larkspur is a mecca for bikers and hikers —  view the Marin bicycle map here.
