Parking Tips
Every activity at the Sun Valley Resort is within easy access to the local lodging accommodations via free public transit.
Where to Park
Parking your car is not a problem in Sun Valley, Idaho. Many of the lodging facilities have their own designated parking areas. In addition, downtown parking lots are prevalent in the major communities of Hailey, Bellevue, Ketchum and Sun Valley, Idaho. Originally designed as a tourist destination, parking was a factor in the original design of the resort area.
Parking is available at the base of Bald Mountain, on both the south and north side of the ski area – River Run or Warm Springs. In addition, there is adequate parking at the base of Dollar Mountain, which is actually within walking distance from the Sun Valley Lodge.
