Driving Tips for Vail

The driving conditions vary between the winter and summer months, but these tips will give you peace of mind during your Vail trip.

  • Free Parking: Vail’s primary parking structures, Vail Village and Lionshead, offer free parking from early in the morning, until before midnight.
  • Altitude: Many of the roads near Vail are at an altitude of over 9000 feet. Remember to stay hydrated and rest if you’re feeling the effects of Vail’s high altitude.
  • Winter driving: During the winter months, mountain roads become more dangerous and may even close due to snowfall. Check the road conditions before starting your journey, and reduce your speed in snowy or icy areas. Also avoid abrupt accelerating, braking, or turning.
  • Speed limits: Speed limits in Vail always depend on road conditions. Even if the posted speed limit is 50 mph, you must reduce your speed during inclement weather. Expect speed limits of 25 mph in residential and commercial neighborhoods.

Today we had (THE) Whitney helping us with our reservation. We ran into some flight delays and she was really understanding and willing to help us out. She also did an incredible job analyzing the needs of our group and working to get us the best experience possible. Whitney was kind, patient, and efficacious. She provided hands down the best experience I have ever had with SIXT. Which should be held in the highest regard because I only rent with SIXT. Would definitely recommend.
