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.
Yes: OpenStreetMap marks these as free: Car park by Pelinche, Car park by Escondus V15, Car park by Sainte-Marie V18. 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.
We do not publish tariffs: no open source keeps them up to date, and a figure from memory is exactly the one that is wrong on the day you drive up. What we do know is which ones charge: 1 of the 13 car parks at Vars are marked as paid. If they charge, the price is on the resort’s or the town’s website.
At least 229: that is the sum of the 2 car parks with a recorded capacity in OpenStreetMap. The other 11 have none, so the real total is higher.
If you would rather skip the parking, see how to reach Vars by public transport or transfer, and where to stay at the foot of the slopes.
