The present disclosure relates to a method performed by a parking area guiding system (5) of an autonomous vehicle (4) for autonomously guiding the vehicle through a parking area (1) comprising at least one parking space (6), along at least a segment (21) of a predefined track (2). The track comprises one or several markers (3) continuously and/or intermittently arranged on a floor and/or the ground of the parking area. The parking area guiding system detects, by means of a sensor unit (10) comprised in the parking area guiding system, at least one selected marker (31) associated with a selected segment (211) of the track. The selected marker comprises a guiding indicator (311) indicating a vehicle guiding instruction for the selected segment. The parking area guiding system furthermore autonomously guides, by means of a guiding unit (11) comprised in the parking area guiding system, the autonomous vehicle along the selected segment based on the guiding indicator. The disclosure also relates to a parking area guiding system in accordance with the foregoing, a vehicle comprising such a parking area guiding system, as well as method of providing the above mentioned markers. By detecting markers which are continuously and/or intermittently arranged on the floor and/or the ground, guiding indicators of said markers indicating guiding instructions for the vehicle along the track are detectable, and subsequently interpretable, in a convenient manner.
