Car parks at Mellau, closest to the lifts first

Distances are in a straight line to the nearest lift base, not by road. Spaces, price and type are those recorded in OpenStreetMap; where there is no data, we say so.

Is there free parking at Mellau?

Yes: OpenStreetMap marks these as free: Car park by Mellaubahn, FC Mellau, Car park by Hasenlift, Schwimmbad Mellau, Bengatherbrücke Mellental. Whether a car park is free can change from one season to the next; if there is a barrier or a pay machine, the sign wins.

How much does parking cost at Mellau?

We do not publish tariffs: no open source keeps them up to date, and a figure from memory is exactly the one that is wrong on the day you drive up. In OpenStreetMap none of the 5 car parks at Mellau is marked as paid (5 free, 0 with no data). If they charge, the price is on the resort’s or the town’s website.

How many parking spaces are there at Mellau?

At least 20: that is the sum of the 1 car parks with a recorded capacity in OpenStreetMap. The other 4 have none, so the real total is higher.

Tips for parking at Mellau

• On Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays the car parks by the main lifts fill up early: arrive before the lifts open or use the outer car parks and ride the shuttle or gondola.
• If you park at the foot of the slopes, leave the car facing downhill with the handbrake on lightly: in a hard frost the brakes can freeze on.
• Carry snow chains or fit winter tyres: in snow the access road can be closed to cars without them.
• Motorhome and coach parks are separate: overnight stays in car parks are not allowed unless signposted.
• In Austria, from 1 November to 15 April winter tyres are compulsory whenever there is snow or ice on the road.
