Map & Directions
to French Broad River Park,
Asheville, N.C.

  • If you are coming from the North (via Hwy 19/23 to I-240E) or the East, get onto I-40 West. Take Asheville Exit 47 for Hwy 191/Brevard Rd. Turn Right off the exit ramp, continue over a bridge. At next stoplight, go Right onto I-240 East, STAY IN FAR RIGHT LANE, take next exit (Exit 1-C) onto Amboy Road. On the Right, just after getting onto Amboy, you will see the former Speedway racetrack (now a park); this is the best place to park your car and shuttle to the site. Or, continue on Amboy, with the river on your right, to French Broad River Park entrance (marked by small grey obelisks) on your Left. See note on parking, below.

  • If you are coming from the South (via I-26W toward Asheville) or West, get onto I-40 East. Take Asheville Exit 46-B ON YOUR LEFT onto I-240 East. Take Exit 1-C onto Amboy Road. On the Right, just after getting onto Amboy, you will see the former Speedway racetrack (now a park); this is the best place to park your car and shuttle to the site. Or, continue on Amboy, with the river on your right, to French Broad River Park entrance (marked by small grey obelisks) on your Left. See note on parking, below.
  • PARKING at the French Broad River Park is very limited. There is some parking close by and along Amboy Road's shoulder, but the best place to park is at the former Asheville Motor Speedway racetrack (now a park), which is on your Right just after you get onto Amboy Road. The drawback is that it's too far to walk safely from there to the Park.
    • If you have a van, SUV or large car, please consider volunteering to shuttle people from the racetrack to the Park. (We will reserve some spaces at the Park for shuttles to park in.)
    • Taxicabs will be on call; if you don't see one, call one of the following numbers on a cell phone:
      258-8331, 253-3311, 252-1913, 232-1112.
      Fare is about $3 one way, $6 both ways.
