Check the free Red Barn shuttle before driving up Schweitzer

Open tip ↗

Schweitzer describes a free winter shuttle from the Red Barn park-and-ride at North Boyer and Schweitzer Mountain Road to the Village. Check SPOT connections to reach the Red Barn, plus your ski day's first and last departures. The resort page still labels winter parking 2025/26 and says 2026/27 twilight dates are coming; do not assume the displayed timetable or older parking prices apply to your trip. This winter service is separate from the paid summer bike shuttle. Compare the confirmed bus itinerary with fuel and parking costs.
