List of hills in San Francisco

This is a list of the hills in San Francisco, California.

Prior lists Several cities claim to have been built on seven hills. Seven of the city's most well-known hills, sometimes referred to collectively as the "Seven Hills of San Francisco," include Telegraph Hill, Nob Hill, Russian Hill, Rincon Hill, Twin Peaks, Mount Davidson and Lone Mountain or Mount Sutro.

The origin of most longer lists of San Francisco hills is Hills of San Francisco, a compilation of 42 San Francisco Chronicle columns, each describing one of the city's hills. The "Hills" chapter of Gladys Hansen's San Francisco Almanac repeated the list given in Hills of San Francisco and added the then-recently-named Cathedral Hill for a total of 43, but the "Places" chapter listed many additional hills. More recent lists include more hills, some lesser-known, some not on the mainland, and some without names.
