- Freeways 5 and 15 can be used to enter San Diego County from the north, both of which will allow you to get on the 805 freeway south.
- Freeway 805 splits off from freeway 5 in the La Jolla area, and 805 crosses over freeway 15 allowing easy transition just before the interchange with highway 94, the eastbound freeway that leads to the park. (Get on the 805 and just stay in the right lane)
- Head east on highway 94 for a few miles and take the right hand offramp to stay on Hwy 94 when the roadway you are traveling becomes the 125 freeway. (If you find yourself approaching freeway 8 you missed the exit for the 94) Highway 94 east will wind down to a 4-lane road and will become more residential.
