Hi

Open Disk Utility in Applications/Utilities and select the DVD item in the Optical drive

It will give a path like this

(yes this was an older OS Install Disk pushed in to the Drive under Mavericks)

EDIT.

Alternative is the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder and enter in /Volumes in the dialogue box.
