SkiWelt: promotions with fixed dates
Family Ski Weeks: 5–18 December 2026 and 13–29 March 2027. SkiWelt Ellmau extends to 4 April 2027; regular adult value-season prices apply there from 30 March. The free offer starts with a qualifying pass for at least three days, not an individual day ticket.
When a qualifying adult pass is purchased, children born in 2011–2020 can ski free during the matching period. Season passes, SuperSkiCard, single rides, point cards and other excluded products do not qualify. Check the full promotion conditions before booking.
Example: one ski day at Stubai Glacier
Two adults and two children under 10: when the free-pass conditions are met, two full adult winter day tickets cost €151.00 together. Add any Keycard deposits, rental, travel, parking and food. This is a ticket calculation, not the outing’s total cost.
The underlying adult ticket costs €75.50 in the winter tariff period from 24 October 2026 to 16 April 2027. Do not set a child’s price to zero unless free-pass eligibility is confirmed.
