Facility Overview
The Beaver Run parking facility, located at 620 Village Rd, is a premier parking destination serving the Beaver Run Resort and the surrounding Peak 9 base area in Breckenridge, Colorado. This facility primarily serves guests of the resort and visitors to the ski slopes, offering both surface-level parking and structured parking options. As an alpine facility, it is designed to accommodate standard passenger vehicles, SUVs, and trucks common in mountain regions. Please note that while there is no restrictive height limit for the open-air surface portions, interior garage areas may have standard clearance requirements, typically around 7 feet. Drivers of high-roof vans or vehicles with oversized rooftop cargo boxes should utilize surface spaces when available.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
Situated directly at the base of Peak 9 of the Breckenridge Ski Resort, this location is arguably one of the most convenient spots for winter sports enthusiasts. Beyond the slopes, the lot provides immediate access to:

Visitor & Driver Tips
Always check the current mountain conditions and parking status before driving, as parking can be limited during high-traffic holidays. If you are staying at the resort, confirm your parking permit process at check-in to avoid any issues. For day-trippers, consider carpooling, as mountain road congestion is common, and parking fills rapidly. Ensure your vehicle is equipped with appropriate winter tires or chains, as required by Colorado law during inclement weather.
