DLR to Knotts....walking?

[DailyBugle_JL]

I was just wondering what is the best route to take between Disney and Knotts if your walking between the two? Has anyone ever done this before?

P.S.

< I still dont understand why people cant figure out what that is.

Well, I went to MapQuest and tried "Avoid Highways"

 

Directions

Total Est. Time: 14 minutes Total Est. Distance: 7.01 miles

1: Start out going NORTH on S HARBOR BLVD toward S MANCHESTER AVE. 0.3 miles

2: Turn LEFT onto W BALL RD. 4.4 miles

3: Turn RIGHT onto S BEACH BLVD / CA-39 N. 2.0 miles

4: Make a U-TURN at LA PALMA AVE onto BEACH BLVD / CA-39 S. <0.1 miles

5: End at Knott's Theme Park

8039 Beach Blvd, Buena Park, CA 90620, US

 

I guess if you're walking, you can ignore that U turn

 

It looks like it's possible to take transit as well-you could walk along the bus route and hop on board if you change your mind partway...

Seven miles? That's about a two-hour walk for me.

^True. I think you will probably be too tired to walk around a theme park after 7 miles. Then you might not want to walk back.

[waterviper]

Get a cab or find a bus route! That is what I would do.

[the sound]

7 miles isn't that far![/i]

[smells_like_team_disney]

^Yes it is.

Oh come on, he wants to walk... Walk to the bus. Get on. Walk to a seat. Sit. Walk off the bus.

 

Actually, one time that I went to Knoebels my car ran out of gas. I ended up walking about 4 miles to the nearest gas station and then the 4 miles back to my car. I then went to the park and had a great day. I wasn't tired. That was after driving the hour and a half there and then back again.

When are you visiting?

 

There is a bus that connects the two quite nicely - I use it to go to/from Downtown L.A. to Knotts/Disneyland and it's pretty cheap.

The bus is the best way, unless you really wnt to walk

 

p.s.

 

the coaster in your avatar is Dæmonen at Tivoli Gardens.

I wasn't aware that it was safe to walk through that area. (sorry, I'm still relatively new to LA, was just wondering)

It's been a LONG time since the time I caught a city bus to DisneyLand, if I remember correctly, the city bus stop is at the Disneyland Hotel, right? That's pretty important to point out.

Also, from that same trip, the bus stopped running pretty early, and my friend and I ended up getting kicked off Disney property and having to walk to the Greyhound station. It is a hike just to walk around the Disney perimeter!

woah, 7 miles is a bit of a walk but if your really determined I'm sure you could do it...oh and to the guy above me thats not Damion its Goliath (SFOG) helix
