Welcome to MSG-Milpitas Social Group.
This hike is for all the people that want to explore Alum Rock Park.
This will be a huge group of people. I suggest that you arrive early and park in the residential area before the park entrance and walk in.
Limits: No pets (except for assistance dogs).
Parking: $6 inside the park; a limited number of free spots are available at the main entrance, requiring a long walk to the park's interior. No fees collected on weekdays during non-summer months.
Driving directions: Take Interstate 680 to Berryessa exit and go west to Capitol Avenue. Go south for 0.3 miles and turn east on Penitencia Creek Road; follow it for two miles to the park entrance.

Please note:
THE ACTUAL ADDRESS IS 15350 PENINTENCIA CREEK ROAD. But if you mapped to that, you would ended up in the middle of the park(we don't want that) You can park on the street or drive into the park and park at the first FREE parking(if you get there a little early!)
