Ski & Snowboard Season Passes

The tentative season dates for Winter '26 are:

• ‍Cardrona: June 13 – October 11

• Treble Cone: June 27 – September 27

An Unlimited Season Pass is the most flexible pass to ski and ride any day of the season at Cardrona and Treble Cone, plus benefits on and off the mountain.

A Saver Season Pass allows you to ski and ride at Cardrona only, any day of the season, excluding the blackout period from 06 - 17 July, 2026.

The tentative blackout dates for Winter '26 are 06 - 17 July, 2026. Blackout dates apply to Saver Season Passes only, Unlimited Season Pass holders can ski or ride any day of the season!

Nope, you can just turn up; we've already accounted for you being here even if we are sold out of day passes.

To secure your pass, you’ll need to pay a $100 deposit upfront. The remaining balance will be equally split into the time between when you paid your deposit and the start of the season. You’ll be contacted with your payment dates when you pay your deposit. Learn more here.
