Other Important Information to before you get to Copper Mountain!

Summer Parking:

Getting Where You Want To Be: There are a variety of parking options at Copper Mountain. After exiting I-70 at exit 195, turn right onto Copper Road at the first traffic signal. If you are approaching from
Leadville it will be on your left. If you are looking for the Copper Creek Golf Club, East Village or
Copper Station, stay on Copper Road until you see Wheeler Place Dr. on your left. Take a left and stay left until you see the Wheeler Parking Lot. If the lot is full, backtrack a short distance towards the traffic signal until you see the entrance to the Alpine Lot on your right. From the Alpine Lot it is a very short walk to East Village on the shuttle road. The shuttle road is closed during the summer so don’t worry about traffic.
If you are looking for fun in the Center Village, continue on Copper Road until you reach Ten Mile Drive. At this point you have three options: turn left and proceed to the parking structure in Ten Mile Circle, go straight ahead and look for Chapel Lot on your left (by the go-cart track), or continue past the Chapel Lot and look for the Beeler Lot on your right. All of these lots are very close to action. Except for a few select events, parking is free all summer. If you are coming to attend one of our big events, watch for the orange signs and parking staffers for direction on where to park.

RV Parking: RV parking is available at no charge in any of the resorts “day use” parking lots (Alpine, Chapel) for up to 3 days. There are no hook ups for power, water, or sewer; however, bathrooms are available nearby village facilities
