Mount Sutro (elevation: 909 ft.) is a hill in San Francisco, California USA, that was once named Mount Parnassus. It was renamed to honor Adolph Sutro, the 24th mayor of San Francisco. The property is part of the parcel originally granted to the university by Sutro to build a campus that later became UCSF. Most of Mount Sutro remains private property owned by University of California, San Francisco. Unmarked trails leading up to the forested summit on the mountain are open to visitors, but there are no views from the top.

Mount Sutro is located in central San Francisco, near the Twin Peaks. The Sutro Tower, a large television and radio broadcasting tower, which provides San Francisco Bay Area residents a wide variety of entertainment channels including KQED, stands on a lower hill between Twin Peaks and Mount Sutro. Mount Sutro is covered by eucalyptus groves planted in the late 1800s. Victorian houses crowd the lower hillsides of the mountain.
