Walk SF has a new walk that takes participants along 2,000 of San Francisco's most beautiful and challenging stairs.

San Francisco is one of the most walkable cities in the country unless you hate hills. There are at least 600 public stairways to get you up and down the city's steep hills."When I walk around different neighborhoods, I wish I lived there but I can't live everywhere, but I can visit," said walking aficionado Nancy Botkin.

The walk is about four miles long and consists of 2,000 steps around iconic San Francisco neighborhoods. Mapping the route was not easy for Botkin and not just because she had to walk it first and count each stair."We looked for a walk under five miles and would have more than 1,000 stairs. But because of San Francisco's geography, we struggled for one under 3,000 stair steps," said Botkin.
