Patterson Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Patterson Pass is in the middle of Patterson Pass Road, which is about 13 miles long. The road starts at Mines Road in Livermore and goes eastward over the approximately 1,600-foot Patterson Pass into San Joaquin County, where it terminates at Interstate 580. Be sure to hit the pass at the right time of the day, as heavy rush hour can be more difficult to manage.
