You can buy online tickets up to a few minutes before first using them. The one exception is when you buy a new KeyCard, which is sent out by post. This must be done at least five days before the validity period of the ticket begins. 

Yes. You can choose from the following flex ski passes:

• 2 in 4 days
• 3 in 5 days
• 4 in 6 days
• 5 in 7 days
• 5 in season
• 6 in 8 days

Please do not carry your flex ski pass on you when travelling as a pedestrian with a single/return ticket. Otherwise the ski day will still be used.

The 6-day ski pass can either be combined with the preceding afternoon (½ & 6) or with the following morning (6 & ½). In addition, there is even an option to add the previous morning and following afternoon to it (½ & 6 & ½).

When booking a seasonal or annual pass you will need to submit a photo in addition to stating your first and last names and date of birth. Just upload the photo, fill in the details and you’re done. As an ID check has to be carried out with these passes, you can only collect your pass from one of our sales points (at the cash desk marked “pick-up”). Seasonal pass winter: the earlier you book, the better the price!

For technical reasons, it is not possible to calculate whether one or more Saturdays fall within the validity of a ski pass of 8 or more days. Either in the web shop or at the points of sale, it is not possible to get this rate for more than 7 days. 
 

After booking a seasonal or annual pass, you will receive a booklet containing numerous vouchers and coupons when you collect your pass from the sales point. Further details can be found here.
