Table of contents
1. General
The ski passes are non-transferable and must be presented upon request of the control personnel.
Subsequent exchange as well as extension or postponement of the period of validity are not possible.
The individual services to which ski passes entitle the holder are provided by legally independent companies.
The company selling the ski pass acts for the other companies only as their representative.
The contracting party is only the mountain railway company whose facilities and slopes are used by the ski pass holder.
The other mountain railway companies of the Silvretta Arena are not liable.
Therefore, only the respective company is obligated to provide the individual services and to compensate for damages in the event of any incidents.
For example, the ski area on the Swiss or Austrian side is operated by different companies.
Our ski passes are basically subject to the access control system “Photocompare”.
This means that at the turnstiles of the feeder lifts, a photo of the ski pass holder is taken on a case-by-case basis, which is then compared with pictures taken when passing through the technically equipped turnstiles in the ski area.
The corresponding pictures are stored in encrypted form and deleted after expiry of the validity period of the ski pass.
With the purchase of a ski pass, you give your consent to data processing in the sense described.
It is also possible to purchase ski passes valid for one day, which are technically configured in such a way that when passing through the turnstiles, no photographs are taken when passing through the turnstiles (these ski passes are also randomly checked by our lift personnel).
We ask for your understanding that our cashier staff may issue discounted ski passes only upon presentation of the appropriate documents (guest card, photo ID …).
All ski passes from 2 days are issued on KeyCards against a deposit of 5 euros.
Return options for undamaged KeyCards and refund of the deposit at the cable car ticket offices, the Samnaun Guest Info and at hotels and apartments on a voluntary basis .
Please pay attention where your ski pass is valid or should be valid when buying! Should you travel with your ski pass to an area not connected to this (even if there is no difference in price), the ticket is invalid and will not be refunded.
Apart from that the conditions of carriage issued for the individual railways/lifts apply.

21. Tariff regulations
The prices listed in the lift information are based on a calculation as of May 2023.
In fact, however, the further development of the factors relevant to this calculation (e.g. energy costs, inflation, etc.) cannot be estimated at the present time.
Therefore, it may be necessary to recalculate the prices in case of corresponding developments.

In any case, the price announced at this (later) time must be paid.
