Cervinia Ski Passes
A ski pass is essential when visiting Cervinia, granting access to the Aosta Valley, one of Italy’s most impressive and snow-sure ski areas. With links to Zermatt across the Swiss border, Cervinia offers wide, open pistes, reliable snow conditions and breathtaking views of the Matterhorn. A valid ski pass allows you to make the most of long, cruising runs, modern lift systems and seamless connections across the wider international ski area, making it ideal for confident intermediates and advanced skiers.
Purchasing your Cervinia ski pass in advance with us lets you kick-start your holiday on the right foot. Rather than queuing at the lift and ticket offices when you arrive, with your pre-booked pass, you can beat the crowds, pick up your physical pass and head straight to the slopes if you want. With Erna Low, ski passes can be added easily to your ski holiday booking, keeping everything organised in one place.
With everything organised before you travel, you can arrive ready to ski and spend your first day enjoying Cervinia’s vast slopes, reliable high-altitude snow and spectacular alpine scenery. Booking your pass (and all your other ski extras) with Erna Low makes the whole process stress-free and straightforward.
Types of ski passes in Cervinia
Cervinia offers two principal ski pass options suited to varying areas of coverage, mainly depending on how much you’d like to explore during your stay.
The Breuil-Cervinia-Valtournenche pass covers the Cervinia and Valtournenche areas, while the Breuil-Cervinia-Valtournenche-Zermatt pass grants access to the entire ski area.
Both local and wider ski area passes are available in flexible durations, including half-day, full-day, and multi-day options, allowing you to tailor your pass to your stay length. Ski passes are free for children under 5 and seniors aged 80 and over. Reduced rates and discounts may be available for children and disabled skiers.

FAQs
Can I buy my Cervinia ski pass in advance with Erna Low?
Yes, you can purchase your Cervinia ski pass in advance as part of your Erna Low ski holiday booking. It's the easiest option (and our most recommended too). Adding your ski pass to your holiday package during the booking process keeps everything organised in one place and spares you the ordeal of queuing at the ticket offices. Booking in advance also guarantees availability, especially during peak weeks when lift pass offices can be busy. With your ski pass ready before you travel, you can make the most of your arrival day and enjoy a smoother, more relaxed start to your Cervinia holiday.
How much does a ski pass cost in Cervinia?
The cost of your Cervinia ski pass will largely depend on the age of the pass holder, the type of pass, and its duration. The local Cervinia passes (Breuil-Cervinia-Valtournenche) are generally more affordable than the international Cervinia–Zermatt pass (Breuil-Cervinia-Valtournenche-Zermatt), which offers much broader access. Prices also differ for adults, children and seniors, with discounts available for younger and older skiers. Longer-duration passes typically offer better value per day. When booking with Erna Low, all ski pass prices are clearly displayed during the booking process, allowing you to compare options and choose the best fit for your holiday before you travel.
Is it cheaper to buy ski passes in Cervinia or in advance?
Ski pass prices in Cervinia are generally the same whether you buy them in advance with us or in resort. However, booking in advance with Erna Low offers greater convenience and peace of mind. You won’t need to queue at lift pass offices, and your pass will already be arranged as part of your holiday. This can save valuable time, particularly during busy periods. Advance booking also makes budgeting easier, as your ski pass cost is included in your overall holiday price. While the cost may be similar, the added convenience often makes booking ahead the preferred option.
Are there beginner-friendly ski passes in Cervinia?
Yes, Cervinia is well-suited for beginners, and the local Cervinia ski pass is usually the best option for those new to skiing. The resort features wide, gentle slopes and confidence-building terrain, ideal for learning and improving. Beginners typically don’t need access to the wider international area, making the local pass a more cost-effective choice. Cervinia’s layout allows beginners to progress comfortably without feeling overwhelmed. Booking your ski pass in advance with Erna Low ensures everything is ready before you arrive, so you can focus on lessons and enjoy your first turns on the snow.
Can I upgrade my ski pass during my stay?
In some cases, it’s possible to upgrade your ski pass in resort, for example, from a local Cervinia pass (Breuil-Cervinia-Valtournenche) to the international Cervinia-Zermatt pass (Breuil-Cervinia-Valtournenche-Zermatt). Availability and conditions depend on the remaining duration of your pass, and an additional charge will usually apply. If you think you may want to explore the wider area, it’s often worth considering the international pass from the outset. This avoids the need for upgrades and allows complete flexibility throughout your stay.
