Parking on the outskirts of Prague

Are you looking for secure parking on the outskirts of Prague? Many drivers prefer to park outside the city center to avoid the stress of navigating the capital's busy streets. Common concerns like heavy traffic, fear of vehicle damage, the frustration of finding a spot, and high central parking rates make parking on the periphery a strategic choice.

Prague boasts one of the best public transport networks in the world. Choosing a parking spot near a metro or tram station on the edge of the city is a great solution. With MR.PARKIT, you combine the security of a private garage with the benefit of a quick public transport commute anywhere in the city.

Why Park on the Outskirts of Prague?

  • Affordability: Significantly lower rates than in the city center.
  • Guaranteed Availability: A much wider selection of available spots.
  • Seamless Commute: Fast access to the historic center via metro or tram.
  • Less Traffic: Avoid the congestion and narrow one-way streets of the inner city.

Parking options outside the center of Prague

Parking at shopping centers 

Some shopping centers in Prague offer free parking for a certain period of time (usually 1-3 hours, even longer on weekends). After this time period, parking costs approximately CZK 50-60/hour. Parking is completely prohibited outside the opening hours of the shopping centers.

Parking in zones 

The zones are blue (residential; only short-term parking for visitors), purple (mixed; unlimited parking for residents, for visitors for the time indicated on the sign) and orange (visitors only; any visitor can park here for a limited time).

P+R (Park & Ride) 

So-called park-and-ride facilities in the immediate vicinity of public transport stations, especially near the metro. Some locations offer free parking for 12 hours, after which all-day parking costs CZK 50 or CZK 100. Payment is only possible on site and parking spaces cannot be reserved in advance.

Your parking space is reserved in advance, paid for online, and waiting just for you. As a bonus, you don't have to carry a parking ticket with you, because all the necessary information is available in the app or in your email and SMS.
