The SKI plus CITY Pass combines skiing and sightseeing in the Innsbruck area

Visitors to Innsbruck this winter can enjoy a combination of thrilling skiing, vibrant city culture, and family-friendly attractions, all on one ticket. 

The SKI plus CITY Pass Stubai Innsbruck offers everything you need for an exciting and varied winter sports break in the Tyrolean mountains.

With access to 12 ski areas in and around Innsbruck, the capital of the Alps, and the neighbouring Stubai Valley, plus entry into 23 top city sights and experiences, travellers can enjoy two holidays in one. 

Designed for visitors who want more from their holiday than just time on the slopes, the SKI plus CITY Pass brings together skiing, culture and family fun in one of Austria’s most accessible alpine regions. 

You won’t waste a moment of your precious holiday time here – it’s just a 20-minute transfer from the airport into Innsbruck, and the ski areas are right on the doorstep. 

Flights are available from most UK airports, and you can be on the slopes within an hour.

One pass, 12 ski resorts – from glacier powder to beginner slopes

The SKI plus CITY Pass Stubai Innsbruck covers a wide range of ski areas. One pass, 12 resorts, and each offers something different, from beginner terrain and toboggan runs to freestyle snow parks and freeride zones.

At Axamer Lizum, experienced skiers will enjoy exploring the varied, open terrain and a challenging snow park. The Nordkette ski area, a must for adrenaline junkies, can be reached directly from Innsbruck’s city centre via cable car in only 30 minutes. 

Thrill seekers can head to the Stubai Glacier, Austria’s biggest glacier ski area, with 100 kilometres of guaranteed snow-covered pistes, ideal for early or late-season trips and a freeride powder department that keeps skiers coming back year after year. 

The Pass also covers family-orientated destinations such as Kühtai, boasting Austria’s longest magic carpet ski lift and a kids’ paradise at Muttereralm with its play areas and toboggan runs. 

And, if you have never skied before, Rangger Köpfl and Patscherkofel, with their quiet and wide slopes, are perfect for beginners. 

More than a ski pass – The SKI plus CITY Pass unlocks adventure off the slopes too

What makes this Pass unique is that it’s not just a ski pass, but a flexible ticket to a host of destinations and attractions in Innsbruck, too, making it ideal for families, culture lovers, and anyone who enjoys mixing ski days with time off the slopes. 

Whether carving up glacier runs in the morning or exploring the famous Swarovski Crystal Worlds in the afternoon, this destination provides the opportunity for two different getaways in one unforgettable trip.

The SKI plus CITY Pass gives history buffs free entry to the Hofburg Imperial Palace, its neighbour, the Hofkirche Court Church, where an impressive 28 larger-than-life bronze statues stand guard, and the Tirol Panorama Museum – home to a striking 1,000-square-metre panoramic painting that brings Tyrolean history to life on an epic scale.

Children will love the Alpine Zoo, where eagles, lynxes, and wolves prowl in enclosures designed to mimic their natural habitat, and the illuminated LUMAGICA winter park in Innsbruck’s Imperial Gardens will dazzle their imaginations, with its glowing mythical creatures that outshine even the glistening snowflakes.

Transport doesn’t come at an extra cost either. The SKI plus CITY Pass supports eco-friendly, car-free travel with free public transport to all 12 ski resorts and Innsbruck’s major city sights. 

Ride the Innsbruck Sightseer hop-on hop-off bus, take regional ski shuttles, or whisk yourself up a scenic cable car from the city centre to the summit on the Nordkettenbahn.

Offering flexibility, convenience and variety, the SKI plus CITY Pass is available throughout the winter season and can be purchased online at ski-plus-city.com, at lift ticket offices in the region or via participating hotels.
