Exit at 7th St and turn left onto 7th St. Turn right onto E Table Rock Rd, and follow the road until you reach the parking area for Table Rock. Note that parking may be limited on busy weekends, so plan accordingly.

• Public Transportation

  To reach Table Rock using public transportation, take the ValleyRide bus service from downtown Boise. Board the Route 3 bus towards Boise State University. Get off at the stop near the intersection of S Broadway Ave and E Warm Springs Ave. From there, it's about a 2-mile walk to the entrance of Table Rock. You can follow E Warm Springs Ave to E Table Rock Rd, then turn left to reach the parking area. Be prepared for a steep hike if you choose to walk or bike from the bus stop.
