Paradise Meadows Parking Restrictions for the Winter Season

For those wishing to park vehicles overnight or for multiple days, visitors must follow the process below or risk the potential of having your vehicle towed away at the owners expense. Prior to leaving vehicles overnight, visitors must obtain a permit from Mount Washington's Raven Lodge.

Mount Washington's Raven Lodge staff will direct overnight park visitors to an appropriate parking site and provide them with a "no fee" permit for the dashboard of their vehicle. The permit's format will be randomly changed for security purposes.

While overnight backcountry visitors must make direct contact with Raven Lodge staff regarding where they can park, Mount Washington Resort has agreed to accommodate those visitors who may be starting their trip outside the operating hours of 9:00 am - 4:00 pm at the lodge. For those expecting to arrive when the Raven Lodge is closed, overnight park visitors must phone (250) 334-5764 prior to their trip, to discuss parking requirements and obtain the number for the "coded lock box" where Raven Lodge staff will place a permit with the visitor's name on it. The permit sheet will have a simple parking lot site plan where staff can illustrate an approved parking area.

Designated parking sites will change at the discretion of Mount Washington in order to address snow-clearing concerns.

Any unauthorized (non permitted) vehicle using Mount Washington's parking lots overnight will/could be towed at owner’s expense.
