The resort’s page doesn’t say which season these rules are for. They were current on the page when we checked.
What it costs
Parking at Sunlight is free all year. Attendants direct you to a space, and the lots can fill on busy days.
How to park free
- Every lot is free. When the lots fill, Sunlight runs a shuttle between the overflow parking and the base.
Book or pay
If the lots are full
If you’d rather not drive the mountain road, take Sunlight’s town shuttle from Glenwood Springs. It runs Friday to Monday and on holidays, costs $12 round trip or $6 one way, and is free with a Ski, Swim, Stay package. Last season it left town at 8am, with a second run at 10am Friday to Sunday, and returned at 4:20pm.
Good to know
- The shuttle doesn’t run Tuesday to Thursday.
- Shuttle stops last season were Hotel Glenwood Springs, Hotel Colorado, Glenwood Hot Springs Lodge, Sunlight Ski & Bike Shop and Mountain Market.
