    Evidence notes: The official park page directly compares parking capacity, permit requirements, overnight use, and access restrictions for the two principal approaches.

    The live park page distinguishes the Ohlone College approach, its Anza–Pine walk-in entrance, and Stanford Avenue access. Visitors using Anza–Pine generally park on the Ohlone College campus and walk to that pedestrian entry point; Anza–Pine is not modeled as a separate parking destination. Ohlone College has more than 900 parking spaces in Lots E, G, H and the parking structure, requires a college parking permit from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. except stated college holidays and semester breaks, and prohibits overnight parking. Stanford Avenue has 43 spaces and permits overnight parking only with the permit issued through an Ohlone Wilderness camping reservation. The page warns that nearby residential parking is restricted on weekends and national holidays, states there is no Mission Peak access from Mill Creek Road, and encourages Ohlone College access because Stanford Avenue is heavily used.

    Evidence notes: The official current map directly labels the Stanford-to-Sunol Visitor Center and park-boundary-to-boundary distances.

    The current standalone Mission Peak map is marked 2026-8. It depicts a restroom at Stanford Avenue Staging Area and distinguishes restroom, drinking-water, horse-water, parking, trail-post, picnic-table, and reservable-camping symbols. It states 8.66 miles from Stanford Avenue Staging Area to Sunol Visitor Center and 3.59 miles between the Mission Peak Regional Preserve and Sunol Regional Wilderness boundaries. It also maps trail-use classes, individual segment mileages, emergency trail-post numbers, the Eagle Spring Backpack Camp, and prohibited access from Mill Creek Road.
