Parking at Stevens Pass

Stevens Pass has more than 2,800 parking spaces in our system of nine lots at the base of the mountain, including our satellite parking facilities: Yodelin and the Stevens Pass Nordic Center. 

Parking in our lots is free and first come first serve. We strongly encourage carpooling, especially on weekends and Holidays.

Please Note: It is important to understand that parking on Highway 2 is not an option when lots are full. Not only is it illegal, it is also dangerous and adds stress on our partners at the WSDOT and State Patrol. Those who park on Highway 2 will be ticketed and towed.

The information about our lots is best viewed in reference to the parking map below
