What’s a 25 hour lift ticket?
A 25 hour ticket provides access to the lifts in 25, one hour increments. When a user passes through the first IC lift ticket gate 1 hour is initially deducted from the lift ticket with users free to access any lift for the next 60 mins. 24 hours will be remaining on the ticket. After 60 mins have elapsed if the user passes through another IC gate a further hour will be deducted from the lift ticket. A total of 25 hours can be enjoyed throughout the winter season by purchasing this pass.
In addition, our limited-time Advance Lift Tickets offer even better value: 25 hour ticket +10 gives you 35 hours of use, while 25 hour ticket +5 gives you 30 hours of use.
