Where can I park my vehicle?
Panorama has multiple parking areas available and parking is rarely in short supply.
Lot 1 - upper parking lot: Located at 2040 Summit Drive (near our administration building) the upper parking lot is used primarily for overnight guests in The Approach Hotel, adaptive skier parking and childcare drop off. The lot is full 99% of the time.
Lot 2 - lower parking lot: Instead of turning into the resort at the Panorama welcome sign, continue another 50m (160 ft) down Toby Creek Road and turn left. This is where the majority of skiers and riders park. After parking your car walk past the Adventure Centre, across the pedestrian bridge and ride up the free Village Gondola to the main village hub.
Lot 3 - stables parking lot: Instead of turning into the resort at the Panorama welcome sign, continue another 100 m (320 ft) down Toby Creek Road and turn right. After parking your car walk past the Adventure Centre, across the pedestrian bridge and ride up the free Village Gondola to the main village hub.
Greywolf Golf Course parking lot: Turn into the resort at the Panorama welcome sign and take Panorama Drive to Greywolf Drive, just past the skier overpass bridge. Located at 1860 Greywolf Drive, this lot serves our Nordic Centre primarily but can be used as alpine parking on busy days with access to the mountain via the Sunbird Chair.
