From Fremont, drive north on I-680 and exit
at Calaveras Road (near the town of Sunol.)
Turn right at the exit onto
Calaveras Road and proceed about four miles to a left turn onto Geary Road,
which leads directly into the park.
(If you find yourself driving uphill on a
narrow winding road you’ve missed the Geary Road turnoff.)
To reach the visitor center take the first

From the Oakland-Berkeley area, drive east on I-580 to the junction with
I-680. Take I-680 south and exit at Calaveras Road/Highway 84 just south of the
Sunol exit.
At the bottom of the exit, turn left onto Calaveras Road and
proceed as noted above.
