Randall Museum

Interesting museum with a scientific touch! The surrounding was amazing!

I feel tremendously lucky to be in the Randall Museum neighborhood. Just this week, there was a very intriguing fermentation class, a free astronomy night (where kids and families could learn about the stars — and even check out Saturn thanks to some incredible telescopes!), and a movie night for teens. There’s free birdwatching every second Friday too! The activities are always abound here. And everyone I’ve met on the Randall Museum team is exceptionally passionate and informative. I’d highly recommend anyone become a member and sign up for their newsletter, to stay tuned for any of their upcoming events.

A fun way to spend a few hours! There are live animals to view, even guinea pigs to pet. They have an impressive train set with information on the Transcontinental Railroad. There is also a lot of art on display. There is plenty to view and do, including the incredible views of the city from the hill.

Wonderful treasure house of nature, creativity, history. Many options for all ages, including littles. Learn about nature, climate change, plants, animals. Rescued animals live in the wildlife center. Lots of places to sit and play outside. You can also walk up the winding path and stairs to the peak above. If you don't want to walk or the stairs are inaccessible, you can still enjoy incredible and accessible views. There is a cafe with an outside area with tables and chairs sheltered by sunbrellas to enjoy your food or drink. And - believe it or not - it's FREE! Caution: the road leading down to the Randall is really, really narrow. Yes, it's two way. Be cautious and careful driving on this road. Give way for other drivers as needed.

Great little museum. We visited it for the bugs day event. It was loads of fun. Kids were able to experience some live bugs and also do some fun activities. My younger son loves model trains and it has very large track where you can watch these trains go around through the glass. They also have other kids activities like some live animals, an amazing bee hive, some mechanical stuff where kids get to build stuff and try out small experiments. They also have dedicated classes where parent child can learn to do carpentering together. Which would be super cool if we were living in SF still but we are slightly further away. All of it was free.. can’t beat that. Very cool children’s activity museum. We shall visit again. Parking can be a problem if there big events like bug day.
