public parking Park City

Is there ample free parking in Park City for skiiers who go for the day? I looked on the city website, but they mention only parking for shops/restaruants
Thanks, Greg

Ski resorts (Canyons, Deer Valley, Park City) all have large, free parking areas. Historic main street in Park City has metered parking.

Thanks Kar, it's been over 10 years since I've been to Park City and in my days of staying at the famous Chateau Aprés, I don't remember there being much parking space. Guess that changed with the 2002 games.

As the previous poster said, all ski resorts in the Park City area have ample free parking. However, IMO, the Park City Resort is the least user friendly in that it is a very long walk, up many stairs, carrying your equipment, before you get to the first chair lift. It would make me think twice about going there again, particularly because the price is the same as Deer Valley where valets carry your skis right to the ticket booth and refuse tips.

From a Parkite, I would choose to either ski the Canyons or Deer Valley. PCMR, can be tough to park and get around, whereas the Canyons has a gondola to the far parking lot and of course Deer Valley is awesome with the valet ski service and the tram that runs from the parking lots to the lifts. have a great time!

We were in Park City on a Saturday last October, and found free public parking near Main St., where a lot of the restuarants are. I believe the street is one over Main, and the name contains Swede. Sorry I don't remember all the details. The Eating Establishment on Main was nicer than we expected, and very reasonably priced.

Jacqueline1212, I just returned and the parking at Park City was suprisingly good. I believe you may have parked too far down towards town - there is a lot right at the base of 3 lifts (one is called First Time) just a couple of hundred yards from the resort center. Just a few steps from the car to one of the lifts - real conveniente. If you go again, park there.
