Sutter Health Park Guide

MLB · Sacramento

Last updated: 3/20/2026

Staying in Downtown or Old Sacramento makes Sutter Health Park one of the easiest ballparks to access on foot via a straightforward walk across the Tower Bridge. While public transit can get you there, it requires a Yolobus transfer from downtown. This makes walking from a nearby hotel the most direct route to the park.
