Low Gap Park Disc Golf Course

If you're coming from out of the area, the easiest way to get to the park is to take the North State Street exit off of 101 and go south on State Street until you get to the stoplight at Low Gap Road. Take a right and go straight until you get to the park, on the left, across from the High School.
