Hi there, Looks like your question has been out there for a while without being answered... Hope you were able to get to the park safely but this also hopefully helps my response others traveling to this wonderful park in the future... You can travel to the park by taking Highway 101 or Highway 680 to Alum Rock Avenue eastbound in San Jose. Turn right onto Mt. Hamilton Road and travel eight miles to reach the park entrance. Quimby Road is the alternate road to the park but is very windy and steep in spots and NOT recommended especially for trailers, and big rigs are prohibited.
