Given the large dimensions of Stanford University’s campus, it is recommended that visitors identify, in advance, the building and/or street names they are intending to find. Maps of the Stanford campus, Palo Alto, and the Bay Area can be found on the Maps and Directions page.

From Hwy 101: Take the Embarcadero Road exit, heading west. Stay on Embarcadero Road until you reach El Camino Real. After crossing El Camino Real, you will enter the campus at Galvez Street.

From Hwy 280: Take the Alpine Road exit, heading east. At the first traffic light, make a right onto Junipero Serra Blvd. Turn left at the next traffic light onto Campus Drive West. Once on campus, you can contact your Service Center for additional directions, if needed:

Upon Your Arrival on Campus

If you are being driven to campus, it’s a good idea to have your driver wait during your Service Center check-in. Some of our residences are located a few minutes from the Service Center, making them challenging to reach when carrying luggage on foot. For maps of our different Service Centers, click here.

NOTE: The above transportation resources are provided as a convenience to conference visitors to the Stanford University campus. Stanford University and the Stanford Mathematics Department make no representation regarding the companies/services listed above. All prices and schedules are subject to change without notice. Please visit each transportation provider’s website for updates.
 

Public Transportation

If, for some reason, you don't want to rent a car or take a cab or shuttle, you can get to Palo Alto from the San Francisco Airport by train. You will first need to take a BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) train from the airport to the Millbrae train station (BART schedule here) and then catch a CalTrain southbound to Palo Alto (train schedule here). Once you have arrived at the Palo Alto station, you can take the free Marguerite shuttle to campus. Here is a shuttle route map. Please note that, although the combined fares for this method of transportation are considerably lower than the alternatives, the convenience is also considerably lower.
