University of Nevada, Reno at Lake Tahoe

The University of Nevada, Reno at Lake Tahoe’s parking system is based on a zoned parking system. Currently, all parking lots are designated as a Blue 1 parking zone and a Blue 1 parking permit is required to park on campus. Additionally, Blue 1 Lake Tahoe permits are valid on the main campus in the same Blue 1 parking zone. Conversely, all valid main campus parking permits may be utilized on the Lake Tahoe campus in all Blue 1 zones (excluding reserved or metered spaces). Zone permit fees can be found on the parking permit fees page.
