If there is a certain amount of precipitation (rain, snow) on your skiing day on the mountain during operating hours, you will automatically receive a refund for the ticket price for that day. You can still use the ski pass without restriction.

You can see the price and all further information about possible weather insurance directly in the shop when purchasing your ski ticket, where you can also add weather insurance.

Scenario 1: Reimbursement based on the forecast

If bad weather is forecast during operating hours (08.00 – 17.00 ), the ticket will be proactively refunded 30 to 60 minutes before the start of operation. You will then receive an automatic message from Sensible Weather informing you that you will receive a refund. The ticket remains valid and can still be used on the same day.

Scenario 2: Subsequent reimbursement

If the weather is worse than forecast, you will receive a refund at the end of the skiing day. You will also be notified of this via an automatic message from Sensible Weather.
