Winter 2025-2026 Parking Update
We have made a few changes to parking this season!
During peak operations, the Main Village lot will be for carpool vehicles with 4+ passengers only. This helps us preserve more parking and keep it free of charge, and rewards those who help us in that mission.
We have also added more ADA parking in the arrival court area to keep Purgatory accessible and easy to access for everyone.
The skier drop-off area is located on the left hand side as you approach the arrival court.
Check out this map for clarification!
