Choosing your pass like a pro

Dolomiti Superski makes it easy to tailor your ticket. When you price and purchase, you’ll typically:

  1. Choose where you want to ski:
    • “In tutto il Dolomiti Superski” (entire network), or a specific area such as Val Gardena / Alpe di Siusi, Cortina d'Ampezzo, Alta Badia, Plan de Corones, Val di Fassa / Carezza, Arabba / Marmolada, 3 Cime Dolomiti, Val di Fiemme / Obereggen, San Martino di Castrozza / Passo Rolle, Rio Pusteria / Bressanone, Alpe Lusia / San Pellegrino, or Civetta.
  2. Select the pass duration: daily or multi‑day.

    • Adults
    • Junior (born 2008–2017)
    • Bambini (born 2018–2022)
    • Senior (born 1960 or earlier)

These categories ensure you receive the correct pricing and any age‑based conditions that apply.

Step‑by‑step: How to secure the 5% early‑bird saving

Follow this checklist to keep things fast, accurate, and on time:

  1. Mark your first ski day on your calendar.
  2. Count back two full days from that date.
  3. Before that cut‑off, select your preferred area (e.g., Val Gardena / Alpe di Siusi) or the full Dolomiti Superski network.
  4. Choose your daily or multi‑day pass.
  5. Enter traveler details and select the correct category: Adults, Junior (2008–2017), Bambini (2018–2022), or Senior (1960 or earlier).
  6. Complete the purchase and keep your confirmation handy for a streamlined start on arrival day.
