parts of Balboa Park open
The City of San Diego has opened parts of Balboa Park for passive purposes only (walking, jogging, or hiking). Parking lots remain closed, as access is meant for neighbors within walking distance.
In turbulent times, we must all play our part in flattening the curve of COVID-19 and still maintain our physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing. Balboa Park is here for you while you’re staying at home in accordance with our state and local mandates. Our Virtual Visitors Center provides you with resources and information.
