Ski price shock 2025: Families flee to cheap ski areas!

The price increases for ski passes in the Tyrolean Alps bring shocking news: For a daily ski pass, winter athletes already pay incredible 73 euros today! As a result, families and young skiers in particular are increasingly looking for cheaper alternatives in smaller ski areas or even foregoing a winter vacation. In the past, the skiing holiday was considered a relatively affordable pleasure, but the council signals a worrying turn - who can afford that at all? According to krone.at the price for a family of four who plans a six -day ski vacation will rise to over 1,000 euros, only for the ski passes!

cost explosion and criticism of the industry

operators of the ski areas justify the dramatic price increases with the higher energy costs and the necessary investment needs in the infrastructure. But where is social responsibility? Winter tourism is not only an important industry, but also part of the region's cultural identity. The current pricing policy could have derogatory effects on the overall picture of the offer and deter potential guests, such as the reporting of skiinfo.de Show.

For everyone who still does not want to do without skiing, there is hope: Many smaller ski areas offer competitive prices for daily and weekly tickets that are significantly cheaper. Early bird discounts and seasonal offers help ski fans to reduce costs. To save even more money, it is worth buying the ski passes online in advance. Skiers should find out about the best offers on the websites of the ski areas to get the best out of their ski experience.
