Ski Pass Prices in Italy 2026/27: How Much Does Skiing Cost?

Even the choice of ski pass can add several hundred euros to the cost of a week’s vacation. Ski pass prices in Italy will vary significantly in 2026/27: A one-day adult pass in the ski areas operated by PromoTurismoFVG in Friuli-Venezia Giulia costs non-residents between 38.50 and 55 euros, while in the Dolomiti Superski network—the large Dolomites ski area association—it costs between 80 and 89 euros. For frequent skiers, regional season passes start at 495 euros when purchased in advance; the comprehensive season pass for the Aosta Valley costs 1,590 euros.

In between, there are local valley passes, cross-border passes, and tickets for individual days of travel. The comparison ranges from the Western Alps to the Dolomites, the Apennines, and Sicily. It highlights key offers and price examples to help you plan your trip. Your calculation depends on the specific ski resort and travel dates: A pass covering multiple valleys isn’t very useful if you start from the same valley station every morning.

Which season passes cover large parts of a region?

Several Italian ski regions offer joint season passes. A single pass providing unlimited access to all Italian ski resorts is not among these options. Even passes from well-known providers have a clearly defined scope of coverage.

The regional CARTAneve costs 495 euros instead of 550 euros when purchased in advance in Friuli-Venezia Giulia. In South Tyrol, the 2027 South Tyrol Ski Pass costs 599 euros instead of 705 euros. In the Dolomites region, the two major winter passes, Dolomiti Superski and Superskirama, cost 990 and 995 euros, respectively, when purchased in advance; later, they cost 1,060 and 1,065 euros, respectively. Superskirama is the ski area association for western Trentino.

In Abruzzo, the “Skipass dei Parchi” connects three separate ski areas for 755 euros during the fall presale and 830 euros thereafter. In Lombardy, Ski’n Lombardia charges 1,145 euros for its season pass, plus a 10-euro annual activation fee. The Valle d’Aosta regional ski pass for the Aosta Valley costs 1,590 euros; with the Swiss ski resort of Zermatt, the price is 1,876 euros.

As of November 1, 2026. General adult rates; special rates for residents, organizations, or professions are not included. The Zermatt Pass is a different pass option. CARTAneve advance ticket sales online until November 29, 6:00 p.m. Sources: linked operator websites.

The different validity periods are part of the price comparison. The South Tyrol Ski Pass is valid from November 1, 2026, through October 31, 2027, and is also valid at participating summer resorts. The other passes mentioned are winter passes with their own validity and operating periods. Therefore, those who only want to ski should not automatically assume that summer rides are included as an added benefit.

Aosta Valley and Piedmont: Crossing the border changes the passport

In the Aosta Valley, simply choosing between the Italian and international sides results in a noticeable price difference. For Cervinia and Valtournenche, the connected ski areas at the foot of the Matterhorn, an adult day pass costs 64 euros. The international day pass, which includes Zermatt, costs 88 euros. A six-day pass costs 338 euros or 464.50 euros, respectively, in the Official Cervino Price List.

Season passes also vary: Cervinia, Valtournenche, and the smaller Aosta Valley resorts of Torgnon and Chamois cost a total of 1,244 euros. The pass that includes Zermatt costs 1,460.50 euros. The more comprehensive regional pass includes additional ski resorts in the Aosta Valley. These include Courmayeur at Mont Blanc and La Thuile with its French partner resort, La Rosière. For travel planning around Courmayeur, our Guide to Mont Blanc and Monte Bianco.

In neighboring Piedmont lies Vialattea, the ski area encompassing Sestriere and Sauze d’Oulx. An Italian day pass purchased online costs 52, 58.50, or 60 euros, depending on the season. An international pass that explicitly includes Montgenèvre on the French side costs 69 euros online. Therefore, when booking, be sure to check the exact product name and the purchase channel.

The Italian Vialattea passes, valid for six to 15 consecutive days, also each include one day of skiing in Montgenèvre and in the independent Bardonecchia ski area. This makes them a great option for a varied vacation; for additional days of skiing on the French side, compare the international pass with the available add-ons. Scope of Application and Extensions of Vialattea

Monterosa Ski, in turn, connects the Aosta Valley with Alagna in the Valsesia Valley in Piedmont. Here, it’s worth taking a look at the official ticket shop For your dates: Single-day and multi-day passes follow a dynamic pricing model. The general regional pass for the Aosta Valley also includes Alagna.

Lombardy: Local Map, Alta Valtellina, or the Entire Region?

In Lombardy, several pass models overlap. Bormio, the ski resort in the upper Valtellina, sells a local season pass for 830 euros. It also includes Santa Caterina in the Valfurva Valley and Cima Piazzi-San Colombano. Livigno, the high valley on the Swiss border, has its own season pass for 980 euros.

If you want to travel between these locations, you’ll also come across the Alta Valtellina Pass, which leads to the upper Valtellina. Its coverage includes Livigno and the three Bormio ski areas. However, you can’t reach all four via a single continuous trail route. When moving from one valley to another, you’ll need to factor in the transfer time in your daily schedule.

Ski’n Lombardia is even larger, with 27 member resorts. The season pass costs a total of 1,155 euros, including the annual activation fee. Members include Livigno and Bormio, as well as Pontedilegno-Tonale, the ski resort on the border with Trentino. The Map of the Ski’n Lombardia Area helps you assess how useful it is for your own trips.

In addition, Ski’n Lombardia offers a pay-as-you-go option. This plan includes a 10-euro activation fee, followed by the applicable usage fees. Once you reach the specified usage threshold of 1,250 euros, the plan converts to a season pass. This amount is calculated differently from the prepaid season pass, which costs 1,145 euros. The flexible option may be a good fit if you plan only a few trips; for a winter season with frequent use, be sure to compare the total costs of both options.

The Dolomites: A Joint Look at Trentino, South Tyrol, and Veneto

Dolomiti Superski covers twelve ski areas in South Tyrol, Trentino, and Veneto. These include Val Gardena, the valley below the Langkofel; Alta Badia in the upper Gadertal; and Cortina d’Ampezzo in the Ampezzo Dolomites. The pass is especially useful if you want to ski in multiple zones, such as on the Sellaronda, the ski circuit around the Sella massif.

The South Tyrol Ski Pass is a different option. Its 18 ski and hiking areas are primarily located outside the major Dolomite ski regions. Nauders, on the Austrian side of the Reschen Pass, and Minschuns in the Swiss Münstertal Valley are also included. The name “South Tyrol” therefore does not guarantee access to all South Tyrolean slopes, nor does it strictly correspond to a provincial border.

In western Trentino, Superskirama includes Madonna di Campiglio, Pinzolo, and Folgarida-Marilleva, among others—destinations connected by lifts and slopes around the Brenta Dolomites. In addition, there are separate areas such as Pejo in Val di Sole, Paganella near Andalo, and Pontedilegno-Tonale. The season pass also includes five days of your choice within the Dolomiti Superski area. Superskirama: Ski Areas and Additional Services

For a week at Latemar—the mountain range between Trentino and South Tyrol—the smaller Val di Fiemme/Obereggen pass might be a good option. It also covers other subregions. So the provincial border alone doesn’t determine which pass you need. You can find detailed information about local rates and overlapping areas in our Ski Pass Price Comparison for Trentino-South Tyrol.

Friuli-Venezia Giulia: Multi-day passes are particularly attractive

In northeastern Italy, the CARTAneve is valid in Tarvisio on the Austrian border, at Zoncolan in the Carnic Alps, and in Piancavallo above Aviano, among other places. Forni di Sopra, Sappada, Sauris, and Sella Nevea are also among the areas operated by PromoTurismoFVG. You can travel between the ski resorts by road.

Advance sales run from November 17 to 29, 2026. During this period, the season pass price for adults drops to 495 euros. After that, the CARTAneve costs 550 euros. The Advance Ticket Sales Terms and Conditions set 6 p.m. as the end time for the last day of online shopping.

For day passes, your place of residence is important. Non-resident adults pay 55 euros during peak season and 38.50 euros during off-peak season. These are the rates that apply to travelers. When planning your vacation, you should only count on the lower resident rates if you meet the eligibility requirements.

The cost for a week is calculated quite differently than for six individual days: The six-day pass costs 155 or 217 euros. For juniors born between 2008 and 2019, the price during peak season is 66 euros. Families, in particular, should therefore compare the multi-day packages before booking.

Local season tickets aren't automatically cheaper

The local season pass in Bormio costs 830 euros, while the pass for Livigno costs 980 euros. In Cervinia, the Italian version costs 1,244 euros. Such passes can be a good option for regular visitors, although some larger regional passes cost only slightly more. The key factors are the areas you actually use and the respective family rates.

At Cimone, the ski area near Sestola in the Apennines of Emilia-Romagna, the adult season pass for non-residents has cost 850 euros since October. Campo Felice, the ski resort near Rocca di Cambio in Abruzzo, charges 650 euros during the fall presale and 700 euros thereafter. These two examples also show that a season pass in the Apennines isn’t necessarily cheaper than any Alpine pass.

As of November 1, 2026, 2026/27 winter season. The comparison is based on adult passes without the resident discount. Ticket and additional fees are subject to the operator’s terms and conditions. Sources: linked rate pages.

A summer discount that has already expired isn't much help when making a purchase decision in November. At Cimone, the earlier, lowest-priced advance-sale period is over. At Campo Felice, however, the fall sale runs through November 22. So compare the price available today with the price after the next deadline.

Apennines: Cimone and Abruzzo Have Their Own Alliances

At Cimone, a one-day pass for adults costs 44 euros on weekdays. On Saturdays, Sundays, and during the Christmas holidays from December 24 through January 6, it costs 57 euros. The day of the week affects the price here just as significantly as the peak season does in some Alpine regions. The adult season pass includes five days of skiing at Abetone, the ski resort on the Tuscan side of the northern Apennines. Cimone: Daily and Multi-Day Rates

In Abruzzo, the "Skipass dei Parchi" is a good option if you want to try out several ski resorts. It connects Campo Felice with Ovindoli-Magnola in the Velino Massif and Campo Imperatore in the Gran Sasso Mountains. For adults, the surcharge for the local Campo Felice season pass during the fall presale is 105 euros. Whether this is a good deal for you depends on your planned trips.

The three areas do not form a single, connected ski area. Alto Sangro—the ski association centered around Roccaraso and Rivisondoli, further south in Abruzzo—is also not included on this map. For Roccaraso, compare the Alto Sangro's own tickets. When booking, pay attention to the season indicated: A price list for 2025/26 is not a binding rate for the winter of 2026/27.

A trip to the Abruzzo region can also be combined with a few days off the beaten path. Santo Stefano di Sessanio, the stone village near Gran Sasso, is one such destination. Our guide lists additional destinations Guide to the Attractions of Abruzzo For these kinds of mixed trips, a shorter ski pass might be a better option than a pass covering the entire duration of your stay.

Southern Italy and Sicily: Planning Your Day on the Slopes After Work

Further south, there are additional options, but a different itinerary makes more sense than for a pre-booked week of skiing in the Alps. Campitello Matese and Capracotta, the two winter sports resorts in Molise, take advantage of the MoliseSKI Joint Sales Platform. For the price, what counts is the ticket offered there, with its specific scope of validity.

In Calabria, the ski resorts are located on the Sila Plateau and in the Aspromonte Mountains. The regional tourism organization lists Camigliatello Silano and Lorica in the Sila, Palumbosila near Cotronei, and Gambarie in the Aspromonte. Camigliatello and Lorica offer an integrated ski pass; however, even with a joint ticket option, there is no direct connection between the two resorts on skis. Before booking accommodations, check the current operating status and the offers available for your travel dates. Ski Resorts in Calabria

In Sicily, Etna Nord at Piano Provenzana—the winter sports area near Linguaglossa—is a special case. The operator, STAR Etna, notes the changing snow conditions and the impact of wind and weather. Plan your day on the slopes based on the current opening report and book only the services that are actually available. You should not interpret old suggested prices for Mount Etna as guaranteed rates for the 2026/27 season. Etna North: Operator and Operational Information

For a trip to Sicily, therefore, a flexible daily itinerary is usually more practical than a booking tailored solely to a set number of skiing days. The ski pass fee is not charged until the desired lifts and slopes are available.

Ski Pass Prices in Italy 2026/27: How Much Does a Day of Skiing Cost?

Among the offers compared here, adult day passes range from 38.50 euros during the off-season in the areas operated by PromoTurismoFVG to 89 euros with Dolomiti Superski during the peak season. This is a selection of ski resorts; it does not represent nationwide minimum and maximum prices.

In Bormio, the price at the start of the season is 40 euros; during the rest of the season, it is 59 or 65 euros. In Livigno, the regular prices are 51.50, 66, or 74.50 euros. A one-day pass on the Italian side of Cervinia/Valtournenche costs 64 euros. Such differences can only be meaningfully compared based on the specific travel period.

Cimone€44–57Standard Rate44 € on weekdays; 57 € on weekends and during the Christmas break

As of November 1, 2026. The price ranges reflect seasonal or weekday tiers; availability is not shown for every travel date. Vialattea is explicitly marked as an online price. No nationwide minimum or maximum price. Sources: linked 2026/27 price lists.

The lower limit of a price range does not apply to every winter weekend. Bormio’s 40-euro rate is valid from December 4 through December 18, 2026. In Livigno, the lowest regular rates apply from November 28 through December 18 and from April 10 through May 2. You’ll need to check separately whether the slopes that matter to you are open during these off-peak times.

For Vialattea, the table shows the published online prices. Ticket office prices are listed in a separate column on the operator’s website. Bormio, on the other hand, uses dynamic online prices in addition to its fixed ticket office rates. An online offer for Tuesday and a ticket purchased at the ticket office during Christmas week are therefore two different cases for comparison.

Six days of skiing: How much does a week-long vacation cost?

For a vacation with six consecutive days of skiing, multi-day passes are usually a more appropriate point of comparison. In Friuli-Venezia Giulia, the corresponding adult pass costs between 155 and 217 euros. In Bormio, the three seasonal tiers are 226, 275, and 342 euros. Livigno charges 258.50, 331, or 374.50 euros.

The Italian Vialattea six-day pass costs 261, 305, or 312 euros online. The Cervinia/Valtournenche pass costs 338 euros; the international pass that includes Zermatt costs 464.50 euros. The six-day Dolomiti Superski pass costs 407 or 453 euros, respectively.

Dolomiti Superski€407–453€67.83–75.50Off-season/season or peak season; entire network

As of November 1, 2026. Six consecutive days of skiing, standard adult rate. Daily rates are rounded to two decimal places. Season dates vary; Vialattea: online; Bormio and Dolomiti Superski: at the ticket office. Sources: linked operator price lists.

This affects the overall travel budget. Two adults pay a total of 434 euros for six days during peak season in the PromoTurismoFVG regions, compared to 906 euros for Dolomiti Superski. The difference is 472 euros for the ski passes alone. This does not imply a ranking of destinations: the selection of slopes, accommodations, and travel options also vary.

To calculate the total cost, you'll need the prices for the same calendar dates. The peak season doesn't start on the same day in every area. For a vacation that spans a rate change, the operator's pricing rules apply. Therefore, have the entire pass calculated based on the actual first and last days of skiing.

Families: The year of birth may be more important than the adult price

A low adult price doesn’t automatically mean the best deal for families. In Bormio and Livigno, children born in 2019 or later ski for free when accompanied by an adult with a valid pass, subject to the respective terms and conditions. In the Dolomiti Superski system, the corresponding free access rule applies to regular one-day and multi-day passes for children born between 2019 and 2023. The standard ratio is one paying adult to one child; special products are governed by separate rules.

At Cimone, however, children accompanied by an adult who were born in 2019 or later pay 11 euros per day. Without an accompanying adult, the day pass costs 20 euros. For a family with several young children, this difference should be taken into account when comparing it to a free children’s pass.

In Friuli-Venezia Giulia, a different system applies. The junior rate applies to those born in 2008 or later. For six days during peak season, two adults and two juniors born between 2008 and 2019 pay a total of 566 euros: two payments of 217 euros plus two payments of 66 euros. A family with older teenagers may therefore end up with a different total than a family with preschoolers.

Season passes also have their own rules. For the Dolomiti Superski season pass, the junior price is 665 euros and the children’s price is 325 euros. If purchased at the same time as a parent’s pass, 325 euros is deducted from each pass on a 1:1 basis. This makes the child pass free; the junior pass costs 340 euros. With Superskirama, however, the accompanied child season pass costs 300 euros when purchased in advance. The “free with a day pass” rule therefore cannot be applied across the board to season passes.

CARTAneve also offers a family rate with a 30 percent discount under certain conditions, including living at the same address and purchasing at least three passes at the same time. The CARTAneve's Family Policies You should review this before making a purchase. For discounted tickets, bring the required identification and always verify the total amount for all travelers.

How many days does it take for a season pass to be worth it?

A good starting point is the season pass price divided by the price of a single-day pass. A Dolomiti Superski season pass costs 990 euros when purchased in advance. Compared to individual high-season day passes priced at 89 euros, the season pass becomes more cost-effective starting on the twelfth day of skiing. With day passes priced at 80 euros, the break-even point is reached on the thirteenth day.

For vacationers planning consecutive weeks of skiing, however, this calculation doesn’t add up. Two six-day Dolomiti Superski passes cost a total of 906 euros, even at the higher rate. For twelve days spread across two trips, they’re therefore cheaper than the season pass purchased in advance. The season pass becomes the better option sooner if you’re planning many individual days of skiing.

Getting there is just as important. A large regional pass doesn’t turn valley stations that are far apart into neighbors. Before you buy, figure out how many days of skiing you’ll spend in the main area and how many excursions are realistic. For a single week of vacation, a local multi-day pass is often the best starting point for comparison.

Calculate the total cost of advance ticket sales, online purchases, and lodging

A fixed advance-purchase discount and a dynamic daily price work differently. With a season pass, you purchase it before a certain deadline at a specified price tier. With dynamic tickets, the price for the same day of skiing may change depending on when you book. In Bormio, this applies to online tickets; for Monterosa Ski, you’ll also need to check the specific date.

In Livigno, the “Skipass Free” offer may also be of interest: At participating accommodations, the ski pass is included with your stay during select periods. The terms require a minimum of five nights at a hotel with four days of skiing, or seven nights in an apartment with six days of skiing, and a booking method approved for this offer. Check the Total Price and the "Skipass-Free" Terms and Conditions, before you pay for lodging and the map separately.

In addition to the ticket price, there may be costs for a new card or activation. With Cimone, the reusable card costs 3 euros; with Campo Felice, it costs 2 euros. In Lombardy, the annual activation fee is included in the season pass price. Also, compare which insurance benefits are already included with a ticket and which ones you need yourself.

First, choose the destination for your actual days of skiing, then select the family package and the best time to buy. This will give you a reliable estimate of your total vacation cost. An affordable ski pass is a benefit only if the accommodations, travel arrangements, and the selection of slopes you want also fit your needs.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions About Ski Passes in Italy

Can I share a season pass with my partner?

The personal season passes compared here are non-transferable. Each person needs their own valid pass for alternating days on the slopes. For flexible day passes, be sure to check whether they are personal or transferable.

Is a regional ski pass valid only within a single Italian region?

No. The Valle d’Aosta regional pass also includes La Rosière in France and Alagna in Piedmont. The Zermatt add-on costs 1,876 euros instead of 1,590 euros. Other ski area alliances also cross regional or national borders; the decisive factor is their list of included areas.

Do young children get in for free everywhere in Italy?

No. At Cimone, children born in 2019 or later pay 11 euros per day when accompanied by an adult with a valid pass; without an accompanying adult, the fee is 20 euros. Other areas offer free children’s passes, each with its own rules regarding the child’s year of birth and accompanying adults.

Can I also ski in Roccaraso with the Skipass dei Parchi?

No. The "Skipass dei Parchi" is valid in Campo Felice, Ovindoli-Magnola, and Campo Imperatore. Alto Sangro, which includes Roccaraso and Rivisondoli, sells its own passes. The "Parchi" season pass costs 755 euros for adults through November 22, and 830 euros thereafter.

Is the season pass in Friuli-Venezia Giulia also available to out-of-state visitors?

The general CARTAneve pass is a standard offer; the listed categories and terms of purchase apply. Adults pay 495 euros during the advance sale from November 17 to 29, and 550 euros thereafter. For day passes, there are separate rates for residents and non-residents.

Does the ski pass also cover ski rentals and lessons?

The prices listed apply to the respective lift passes. You must book equipment, lessons, and other services separately, unless your specific vacation package explicitly includes them. For package deals, be sure to check the number of ski days included and the valid lift pass.

As of November 1, 2026, 2026/27 winter season. Selection of key pass offers; this is not a complete list of all Italian ski resorts. The specific travel date, age category, and validity period of the respective ticket are decisive. For offers in the Apennines and Sicily, check the current rates and lift operations before booking.
