There are several entrances into the park, some of which have designated parking. The "main" entrance is on Portola Pkwy at Market. You will find limited parking here, and can be given a citation for parking in undesignated parking lots. Another entrance with parking is located along Glenn Ranch Road. This parking lot is all dirt so hold off on getting your car washed until after your hike/ride...

Both of these parking lots require a small fee of $3.00.

Another entrance, although many consider this to be the exit, is at the corner of Portola Pkwy and Glenn Ranch Road. There isn't any official parking here. Similarly, there is an entrance off of Santiago Canyon Road that takes you into the back of the park near the water tower and Four Corners. This access route is popular for those folks hardy enought to link their Whiting Ranch Ride up with the Santiago Truck Trail.

There are several other trails that lead into the park as well, but we'll cover those at another time.
