If you’re looking to save some money and don’t mind walking a bit, free parking is available at the South Frontage Road just west of the main Vail roundabout. This lot is located just a short walk from the Lionshead Village and the Eagle Bahn Gondola. Keep in mind that this lot fills up quickly, especially on weekends and holidays.

Paid Parking

If you prefer more convenient parking, Vail Resort offers several paid parking options.

Structure Parking

The Village and Lionshead parking structures offer covered parking with easy access to the mountain. The daily rate for these structures ranges from $25-$40 depending on the time of year, with discounts available for multi-day purchases.

Preferred Parking

If you want even more convenience, preferred parking is available in both the Village and Lionshead structures. This allows you to park closer to the slopes for easier access. The daily rate for preferred parking ranges from $50-$60 depending on the time of year, with discounts available for multi-day purchases.

Accessible Parking

Vail Resort offers accessible parking spaces in all of its lots and structures. These spaces are clearly marked and located close to elevators or shuttle stops for easy access.

Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

For those driving electric vehicles, Vail Resort offers several charging stations located in both the Village and Lionshead structures. These stations are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

  • Tips: Arrive early to secure your preferred parking spot, especially during peak season. Consider carpooling or taking public transportation to reduce traffic and parking congestion.
