Getting Around Campus & Davis
UC Davis is a vast and green campus sprawling many acres, and in 2016 the university was ranked as the greenest campus in the world. Hence, we promote traveling sustainably in Davis.
The most common mode of commuting through campus and town is bicycling— in fact, Davis has been nicknamed as the "Bicycle Capital of the U.S." There are designated bike paths and lanes throughout campus and town that allow for safe biking. Bike rental is available at Bike Barn (on campus), and at the B&L Bike shop downtown (610 3rd Street). Guests staying at Hallmark Inn can also rent bikes from the hotel.
Alternatively, commuters can take the Unitrans, an affordable student-driven bus system that will conveniently get you anywhere in Davis ($1 per ride). Please note that there is no bus stop at the Conference Center--the nearest bus stop is located at the Silo, which is within walking distance.
Driving: If you plan to drive, please note that a valid UC Davis permit is required to park on campus. Visitor parking permits are available for $9.00 per day and may be purchased from permit dispensing machines located at the entrances to visitor parking lots. Please see this page for driving directions to the Conference Center and the locations of the nearest parking lots.
