Main access is from Interstate 75 to Interstate 16 east, at the north end of Macon.
Winters are generally mild.
Spring and fall are the best seasons to tour the park on foot. Trails connect most features. If the weather is hot or rainy, you may want to take Temple Mound Drive around to the large mounds. Braille transcriptions of the park story are available in the Visitor Center. Parking lots are located near the Great and Lesser Temple Mounds and the Funeral Mound.
