Car parks at Pradollano, Los Peñones and Las Sabinas

The three car parks

Sierra Nevada has three car parks run by CETURSA, the resort company, spread across the Pradollano village:

• Pradollano, covered, under Plaza de Andalucía, in the centre of the village: 2,644 spaces and an exit next to the gondola. It is the most convenient for starting to ski or for the Cole de la Nieve, which is in the same square.
• Los Peñones, open-air, next to the Virgen de las Nieves chairlift and the Inturjoven Hostel: 750 spaces.
• Las Sabinas, next to the High Performance Centre: 513 spaces.

How much it costs

Right now, in pre-season, all the Sierra Nevada car parks are free, according to the resort's website. In winter, with the resort open, the price changes by day: check it in the fare calendar on the website, which also shows the occupancy of the Pradollano and Los Peñones car parks in real time. Look at it before leaving Granada to know whether it is better to go straight to Los Peñones.

If you have not booked, the stay is paid at the resort's automatic machines or with online payment by QR code. There are also season passes.

Booking a space

In season you can book online on the resort's website, for one or several consecutive days. CETURSA's conditions for the 2025/26 season set these rules:

• You can book up to 8:00 on the day of arrival, subject to availability.
• Each booking is valid for a single vehicle and for the registration you state: with another car, even if it is yours, it is not valid.
• A fixed or numbered space is not guaranteed.
• The ticket lasts from the time of entry to the same time on the last day booked. If you overstay, the excess is paid at the official rate.
• You can change or cancel up to 23:59 the day before and the full amount is refunded; after that, no.
• If the confirmation email does not reach you, the booking has not been made.

Height, motorhomes and tow trucks

The same rules limit parking to vehicles with a maximum height of 2.20 m and do not admit motorhomes, motorbikes or trailers; for exceptional cases you must speak to the car park control centre. Level -1 is only for owners or tenants of spaces. A badly parked car may be towed, which costs €120 on top of the parking time.

Without a car or with little room

To get between the car parks and the square, the Pradollano town bus stops at Los Peñones and at the car park junction, for €2 a trip. If you prefer not to drive up, the Granada – Sierra Nevada bus leaves from Granada bus station. Carry chains in winter: CETURSA warns that it is not responsible if a road closure or the obligation to use them prevents you arriving on the date booked.
