The good news: we’re here to make it feel easy, all while getting you the best deals!
That’s why we’re dropping all the big tips on how to save on your ski trip to Winter Park this coming season. Read on and get to planning your best ski trip yet!
Book Early
We know, we know—the sunshine and warmer temps can have you focused on all the other fun activities to do during off-season. But the reality is that booking early (especially lift, pass, and lodging) can have a huge impact on your overall trip savings. We’ll get into more details on this below, but this is by far our number one tip for taking advantage of early season deals! Do something your future self will thank you for.
Purchase Flex Lift Tickets
Know you want a seat on the lift (at a great price), but aren’t sure what dates you’re going to be there just yet? We’ve got you covered! With Flex Lift Tickets, you don’t have to choose when next season you use them until you’re ready—and you’ll also save big by locking in your tickets now with prices from $89/day.
Consider the Benefits of a Winter Park Season Pass
Whether it’s for a season or for your once-a-year ski vacation, it might be more economical to look at a local Winter Park Season Pass versus lift tickets. And when you grab a Winter Park Season Pass early, you’ll get the biggest savings (along with those Pass Holder Perks!).
Want a bigger deal? We’ve got you covered. Once you have a Winter Park Season Pass, we keep the savings going every year with renewal discounts! Taking advantage of these kick-backs at the onset of pass sales annually can deepen your savings, so make sure to keep an eye out every spring when it’s time to renew your pass!
Pro Trip: skiing midweek? You can save even more! Our Winter Park Midweek Season Pass is a lower rate than our full Season Pass, so consider taking advantage of those extra savings if you’re more likely to hit the slopes Monday through Friday.
Become an Insider
Our Insider’s package is the ultimate deal of the season– with a 25% savings on your entire trip!
Free early morning first tracks and exclusive snowshoe tours. Deals on rentals, group lessons, and guided activities. Some special extras, like an exclusive beanie and complimentary beverages. Plus—knowing you locked in your winter vacation early, before the rush. In short, Insiders know how to get outside (and save money while doing it!).
Plan Your Trip Midweek
What a difference a couple days can make! With a little creative thinking, weekday ski trips are worth the planning. Rates for lift, rentals, and lodging are generally lower, free parking is often easier to come by, and you’re likely to have more laps on the mountain compared to weekends.
Pro Tip: Pair your midweek visits with our Midweek Flex Lift Tickets! Ski from $89 per day without choosing your travel dates until you’re ready.
Use Your Pass Holder Perks
When you’re a Pass Holder, there are plenty of perks that go along with your access to the mountain! Hungry? Grab a 10 Buck Huck at the Mary Jane Café. Forgot your gloves? Use your discount on gear around the Village. Craving fresh tracks? Come to one of our Pass Holder-only Early Access Days. Want to bring the whole crew? Use your special lodging rate, or get your friends and family set up with your Friends & Family lift ticket prices. Feeling the urge to skip the lift lines? Use your discount to hire a Ski & Ride Guide for a personalized day on the slopes just for you. There’s truly an abundance of perks to try out all season long, and they can add up to meaningful savings!
