Directions

Directions from areas West

From Hwy 1 S. Exit at the green valley exit. It's labeled as Watsonville, Hwy 152. It is right after the Airport Blvd. exit. At the first stoplight turn left onto Green Valley Rd. Stay on that all the way through town. At Holohan turn right. At the light (a mile or so later, right after a fruit stand) turn left onto Hwy 152. This will go up into the hills. Right after the summit buildings (an inn and restaurant) there will be a left turn into Mt. Madonna Park. Follow directions for inside the park.

Directions from all other areas

Find your way to Hwy 101. In Gilroy take the Hwy 152 W exit. Turn west off the off ramp onto Leavesley Rd. After the train tracks take a left onto Monterey St. Take a right on 1st St. You will be following signs for 152 through Gilroy. The park is on the right at the Summit of Hecker Pass. Follow directions for inside the park.

Once inside the park

Stay left at every opportunity. (You do not need to pull into the ranger station or pay for anything...someone always ignores the stay left advice) A bit after the deer pen there will be an open space with a couple of dirt roads across it. Our road is at the back right corner. Drive all the way to the end of the road, park, and have fun. We’re located at the Bayview Youth Sites in case you need to ask.
