Detailed Guide for Bernal Road:

The first two miles of Bernal Road are straight and flat, running through suburban housing and commercial areas. Then, after passing the Santa Teresa Golf Course on your left, the road narrows to two lanes and winds up, over a large hill. Almaden Research Center is located atop the hill at the end of this road. Keep going straight. You will eventually see a small IBM sign and then the entry gate. View an aerial map to help you visualize the last part of the journey on Bernal Road..
