Lake Merced , San Francisco Overview

Lake Merced is a freshwater lake system responsible for providing drinking water to the residents of the San Francisco and the surrounding area. Once owned by Spring Valley Water Company (SVWC), which had monopolized San Francisco’s water, it is now managed by the San Francisco Recreation and Parks.

The provision of leading recreational activities in and around the lake was granted soon on the condition of preserving the lake and its flora and fauna. The park facilitates recreational activities such as picnicking, fishing, boating, golfing, bicycling and jogging, roller-blading, and windsurfing. It entertains families with it fishing piers, picnic tables with barbeque grills, restrooms and bird-viewing spots as it is also an important stop for migratory birds on the Pacific Flyway.
