Not sure when exactly the main gate opens but I like to run there at all times and there's a parking lot to the right before the main gate you can park in and go for a walk, run, or picnic until they open completely.
0730 after m Memorial Day
They are open dawn til dusk
Its supposed to be sunrise to sunset, but they don't actually open the gates until 8am.
Sunrise to sunset
