Area Information:

For those who are not sure where Sonora is, look at a California Map and find Yosemite National Park near central California. Sonora is just Northeast of the park.

Airports: We recommend Sacramento International Airport if you are flying in. Bay area traffic is a site to be seen. If you are willing to fight the traffic, either San Francisco International, Oakland or San Jose are other possibilities.

From Sacramento International. Take Interstate 5 south towards Sacramento. Once you cross the river follow the signs to Hwy 99 south (Stockton/Fresno). Proceed on 99 south to the city of Manteca and take the Hwy 108/120 off ramp towards Yosemite. Continue to follow signs to Oakdale/Sonora. Once in Oakdale, turn left on Yosemite (108/120) and follow signs to Sonora. Continue through Jamestown and on the bypass. You are now in the Sonora area. Stay on the bypass until it dead ends and turn right. Continue straight through stoplight (Standard Rd.) and when it dead ends Sierra Bible Church is across Tuolumne Rd.(baseball fields on your right).

From the Bay Area Airports: Locate Interstate 580 East on your map and continue through several Cities and small passes. Once you are passing through Livermore you will be traveling over the Altamont pass. Stay in the left lanes and the Hwy turns into Hwy 205. Continue east to Interstate 5 North and stay in the right hand lane and get on the Manteca bypass (signs to Yosemite) to 99 North. Stay in the right hand lane to next off ramp (Hwy 108/120, Sonora/Oakdale) and turn right (east). Continue to follow signs to Oakdale/Sonora. Once in Oakdale, turn left on Yosemite (108/120) and follow signs to Sonora. Continue through Jamestown and on the bypass. You are now in the Sonora area. Stay on the bypass until it dead ends and turn right. Continue straight through stoplight (Standard Rd.) and when it dead ends Sierra Bible Church is across Tuolumne Rd.(baseball fields on your right).
