It’s always cheaper to buy your ski pass in advance. The earlier you buy, the more you save. On average, buying online and in advance will save you $30/day when you buy a multi-day pass.

Yes, ski passes can sell out. If you buy your day or multi-day pass online and early, you have the best chance of locking in your preferred ski dates as well as getting the best price. Season Passes don’t sell out, but price points change, so we recommend buying season passes as soon as they come out to ensure you’re getting the best price.

The tentative season dates for Winter 2027 are:

• ‍Cardrona: 12 June – 10 October

• Treble Cone: 26 June – 26 September

The peak of NZ winter runs from July - September and these months usually have the most snow and best conditions.

Single Day Passes:

• Valid for the selected date only and specific to either Cardrona or Treble Cone.

Multi-Day Passes:

• Can be used on any day throughout the season.

• Provide the flexibility to ski or ride whenever you choose.

• Valid across both Cardrona and Treble Cone mountains.

*Please note: this does not apply to Early Bird Multi-day pass holders, who can ski or ride any day outside our blackout period (blackout period: 06 - 17 July, 2026).

Half day passes are subject to capacity and will be available on-mountain for the afternoon only, from 12.30pm to 4pm.

To ensure you have the best on-mountain experience, we manage the number of lift passes sold for each day, so days can sell out, especially in school holidays. Pass availability is updated on the snow report page.

Yes, if your child is under 6 years old, their pass is completely free! But all guests still require a pass to access the lifts -book online and visit one of our ticket offices to collect your pass.
