Getting there
If you plan to drive a car to the ride we strongly suggest parking at a Gold Line station (other than Memorial Park or Del Mar) and taking the train to Memorial Park station; auto parking is limited and relatively costly in downtown Pasadena. Allen Station and stations further east, as well as Fillmore station to the west, all have large automobile parking lots.
Route is for beginners and it’s mostly flat, approximately 3 miles with frequent stops.
