Types of Ski Pass in Avoriaz
You can get the Avoriaz or the Portes du Soliel skipass. The Avoriaz ski pass allows access to 75 kilometres of pistes within the immediate ski area surrounding Avoriaz. This option is better suited to short stays and weekend retreats etc. The Portes du Soleil pass, on the other hand, grants complete access to the 650 kilometres of ski terrain, including access to the other resorts within the area and across the border in Switzerland.

How Do Ski Passes Work in Avoriaz?
The Ski passes in Avoriaz function very similarly to most ski passes you would encounter on ski resorts across Europe.
The ski passes are electronically credited onto a smart card which is equipped with a chip for information storage. The card functions similarly to most digital cards with a swipe function at turnstiles and lift barriers. They are hands free activated and can be kept in a front pocket or ski jacket sleeve-pocket for easy activation when within proximity of a turnstile. Can I Pre-book My Avoriaz Ski Pass?
Yes, your Avoriaz ski pass can be pre-booked very easily with us.
We recommended it as we believe it is a very convenient way to secure your lift pass prior to your arrival at the ski resort. You will also get some of the best rates and avoid queuing for long hours.
What About Pedestrian Ski Passes in Avoriaz?
Are you just visiting Avoriaz for the stunning view? Are you perhaps more interested in a snowy wander through the mountains?
You’re still more than welcome! Pedestrians and cross-country skiers have separate rates for single or return journeys. Avoriaz in particular has 7 lifts available for pedestrian and cross-county use in the Avoriaz ski area. Pedestrian lift passes can only be purchased at the ski offices on the resort; they are not available to purchase at the bottom of the lifts.
