Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car, start by navigating to the nearest freeway. From areas in the Inland Empire, get onto the I-10 or I-15 freeway heading toward Santa Ana. If you're starting from Riverside, for example, take the I-215 South to the I-15 South, then merge onto the I-10 West. Continue on the I-10 West until you reach exit 47A for CA-55 South toward Newport Beach. After approximately 10 miles, take the exit for the I-5 South toward San Diego. Continue on the I-5 for about 4 miles, then take exit 106B for CA-22 East. Follow CA-22 East for a short distance, then take exit 13 for Warner Ave. Turn right onto Warner Ave, then left onto Red Hill Ave. The destination, California Historical Site No 203, will be located on your right at 11911 Red Hill Ave. Look for the parking lot of the elementary school.

• Public Transportation

  For those using public transportation, start by taking a bus from your location in the Inland Empire to the nearest Metrolink station. If you're in Riverside, you can take the Route 1 bus to the Riverside-Downtown Metrolink station. Once there, catch the Metrolink train toward Los Angeles Union Station. Transfer at the Santa Ana station. From the Santa Ana station, you can take the OCTA bus routes 54 or 60 towards the South Coast Plaza. Get off at the stop near Warner Ave & Red Hill Ave. From there, it’s a short 10-minute walk: head north on Red Hill Ave, and the historical site will be on your left at 11911 Red Hill Ave. Be sure to check the bus schedules and Metrolink times as they may vary throughout the day.

• Rideshare

  For a convenient option, consider using a rideshare service like Uber or Lyft. Simply input '11911 Red Hill Ave, Santa Ana, CA 92705' as your destination. This option is great if you want a direct route without the hassle of parking. The cost may vary based on your starting location in the Inland Empire, but expect to pay anywhere from $20 to $50 depending on distance and time of day. Make sure to confirm the pick-up point with your driver, especially if you're at a busy location.
