Whether you’re a San Francisco local or just passing through, Hippie Hill is definitely worth a visit. This street is known for its history, its people, and its cannabis sales. Hippie Hill is a hot spot for people-watching, and it’s a great place to start or finish a tour of the city.
History
During the Summer of Love in 1967, Hippie Hill was the cultural hub of the free love movement. It was home to legendary musicians like the Grateful Dead and Janis Joplin. It was also the site of the Human Be-In, a ceremony attended by Allen Ginsberg, Timothy Leary, and the Jefferson Airplane.
Hippie Hill has become a favorite location for 4/20 celebrations. Although it is not as crowded as it was in the mid-’70s, it still attracts a crowd. In fact, it is now the most popular event in the Bay Area on April 20.
Hippie Hill is a little sloping hill in Golden Gate Park. The hill is surrounded by tall trees and eucalyptus. It is a popular place to have picnics. It is also a popular spot for drum circles. Some of the most interesting things to do at Hippie Hill include openly consuming drugs and enjoying the peaceful nature of the park.
People-Watching
During the Summer of Love, hippies flooded Haight Street to promote a lifestyle of nature, art, and spiritual enlightenment. This social phenomenon became a San Francisco tradition, and hippies were known to frequent Hippie Hill. During the Summer of Love, a variety of artists performed free shows in the city. The Jefferson Airplane, the Grateful Dead, and Janis Joplin were integral to the scene.
One of the most popular 4/20 events in the Bay Area is held at Hippie Hill. Last year’s event attracted more than 8,000 visitors. It was a fun event and took up a larger portion of Golden Gate Park than it did in years past. This year’s event is expected to draw upwards of 20,000 people.
