2023-24 winter parking update

We're proud of our plan to curb traffic congestion and foster a more sustainable environment. We plan to build on our success last year to drive greater impact. In line with that commitment, seasonal parking permits will not be offered this season. We continue to encourage guests to carpool, use public transport or consider visiting during non-peak times.

​

  • Parking will remain free in all Mansfield & Midway lots Monday through Thursday during non-holiday periods, and after 2:00 PM every day.

  • The Cross Country Center and Toll House parking areas will remain free seven days a week.

  • Free parking will also be offered at all times in all lots to cars arriving with four or more guests.

  • Paid Parking in the Mansfield & Midway lots will be implemented from Friday through Sunday and during holiday periods.

  • Nearly 40 percent of our parking will remain free at all times, every day of the year. Paid parking will only be in place during our peak periods, representing less than half of the ski season, and only in Lots A, B, D at the Gondola/Midway and Lot C at Mount Mansfield.

  • Free public transit will once again be offered courtesy of Green Mountain Transit; this is especially helpful for guests staying in local area lodging. 

  • All ADA parking is free and options are available at Mansfield Base Lodge, Over Easy Gondola, Midway, B Lots, D2, Toll House, and at the Cross Country Center. 

  • The Spruce Peak base area, which is not owned or managed by Vail Resorts, also offers ADA parking options and a parking garage
