We highly recommend parking in the Merry-go-round Lot 2, which is large and close to the race check-in area. Look for signs and purple balloons directing you from Lot 2 to the check-in. 

​

Detailed Directions:

​

From the 134 (N or S): Exit at Forest Lawn Dr. and head south. Turn left onto Zoo Dr. and then right onto Griffith Park Dr.  Continue for 2.4 miles until you reach the Old Zoo parking area on your right.  More parking is available at the lot on the left just past the Old Zoo. But your best bet for parking is at the Merry-go-round parking Lot 2 (or 1, if 2 is full). To get there, continue on Griffith Park Dr. until you reach Crystal Springs Dr. Turn right. At the next stop sign, turn right again on Fire Rd. After about 1/10th mile, on your right you'll soon reach Merry-go-round lot 1. Turn into Lot 1 and drive through it to Lot 2. Once you've parked, look for Meso Run signs and purple balloons guiding you to the check-in.

​

From the I-5S: Exit at Los Feliz Blvd. Continue onto Los Feliz Blvd. and then turn right onto Crystal Springs Dr. Continue for 1.3 miles until you reach a stop sign where you can turn left to Fire Road.  Follow Fire Road to the top and turn right into Merry-go-Round lot 1. Keep going through Lot 1, and you'll connect to Lot 2. Once you've parked, look for Meso Run signs and purple balloons guiding you to the check-in.  (If you're dropping someone off, continue past Fire Road on Crystal Springs until you reach Griffith Park Dr. Turn left and you'll find us a quarter mile ahead on the left.)

​

From the I-5N: Take exit 141B to Griffith Park. Turn right onto Crystal Springs Dr. and continue for a little less than mile until you reach Fire Road.  Turn left.  See additional directions above.
 

From Los Feliz Blvd: Turn north onto Crystal Springs Drive and continue for 1.3 miles until you reach a stop sign where you can turn left onto Fire Road.  See additional directions above.
