Looks like it will be $35 to drive on the road starting May 1.
And online reserved parking to on the summit starting May 27. No reservation for other road stops.
Its unclear if a fee is required to enter visitors center if you hike up. There appears to be a $10 ticket for that.
Cogway tix start at $62.
My vehicle uses 4 gallons gasoline round trip Manitou Springs and summit.

I guess the best way to the summit is to hike up!

Re: Pikes Peak road and visitors center new fees
Looks like $35 per carload. The individual rate is $10 now until May 1, after May 1 the individual rate is $15 (last year's rate, they have not announced if this year's rate will change.) Unless I'm reading it wrong?

Re: Pikes Peak road and visitors center new fees
The summit house is free. $10 is the current fee per person to drive the highway, which is going up in May.

And as Jim Davies stated the summit house is free.

Re: Pikes Peak road and visitors center new fees
I'm up there at least twice a week running just prior to the PPA. It looks like the "14er Pass" is still $115. Also, since covid they have stopped using the punch card. Now, they use their own db and they check you off at the toll booth in Cascade. With the new db, the pass no longer has an expiration date to use all 14 passes.

Re: Pikes Peak road and visitors center new fees
You'll also need a reservation starting Memorial Day weekend to drive to the summit (timed, two-hour window to enter), but you can still park at Devil's Playground and catch a shuttle in June and July without a reservation (or hike the six-mile round-trip to the summit). Apparently the new summit house is so awesome that people are hanging around longer.

$10 seems fine. It's a beautiful road and there's donuts at the top.Skimo95 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 23, 2022 1:33 pmI personally think this is how it should be.
