Von WOM

The winter season is just around the corner, and for many ski enthusiasts, this means that it is time to check the slopes prices. The current developments show that the costs for ski passes in numerous popular ski areas in the Alps will increase again. The winter sports portal "Schneehoehen.de" has compiled the most important information and determined that the prices for day tickets will be between five and ten percent higher than in the previous year.

It is all the more important for a successful ski vacation to keep an eye on financial expenses. In addition to the costs of arrival and accommodation, the prices for ski passes play a central role. So if you plan to go on a skiing holiday, you not only need good ski equipment, but also a corresponding budget for the ski pass offers.

prices in Austria rise

Especially in Austria, the prices for ski passes present themselves as rising. On average, however, winter athletes have to expect around seven percent higher costs. For a ticket in the Tyrolean Zugspitz Arena, the price is now 66 euros instead of the previous 62 euros. In Sölden, a daily ski pass costs 79 euros in the high season, which corresponds to an increase of almost five euros.

Kitzbühel and the Silvretta region show similar developments: In Kitzbühel, the skiers now pay 76 euros for their day ticket, while the Silvretta Skipass-which covers several ski areas-has the same price. Even in Switzerland, the increase is not missing. Here, a day ski pass in the Davos-Kloster ski area now costs 89 Swiss francs, which corresponds to almost 95 euros, while the day ticket in the Jungfrau Skiregion adds to 79 Swiss francs.

increases also in Italy and France

In addition, winter sports enthusiasts in Flaine, which is part of the large -scale ski area Grand Massif, now also have to dig deeper into your pocket: the day ticket now costs 57 euros instead of before 53 euros. This shows that the price adjustments are extensive and vacationers often face challenges in several countries.

In addition, it is important to note that these price increases apply mainly to the athletes who buy a regular ski pass at the box office. In many regions, special discounts for online bookings or special offers on certain days of the week are offered that could relieve the overall budget for skiing holidays. In addition, packages that combine accommodation and ski pass can often be cheaper.

The possibility of comparing the prices in advance and looking for discounts could help reduce the financial burdens. If you are planning well, you have the chance to enjoy your skiing holiday without excessively straining your own budget. The winter Alps invite you to unforgettable experiences, despite the rising prices for day ski passes.
