Davos Klosters is one of Switzerland’s major winter-sports destinations, with around 300 kilometers of pistes across six ski areas. Davos first became internationally known as a mountain health resort in the 19th century and today also hosts the World Economic Forum, while the wider destination combines skiing, snowboarding, winter hiking, snowshoeing, ice sports, dining, and traditional Alpine villages. For skiers, however, the most important planning detail is choosing the right lift ticket because prices vary by season, ticket duration, age, and ski area.
Quick Answer
For winter 2026/27, the main-season Davos Klosters regional pass costs CHF 94 for an adult day ticket, CHF 230 for 3 days, CHF 390 for 6 days, and CHF 427 for 7 days. Low-season prices are lower, and mountain-only tickets can also cost less. Official prices remain subject to change.
Key Takeaways
- Winter 2026/27 has separate low-season and main-season price schedules.
- The main-season regional adult day pass is CHF 94; the official low-season one-day tariff starts at CHF 81.
- Standard regional tickets extend to 21 days, while separate flexible choice tickets are available.
- Children ages 6–12 and teenagers 13–17 receive reduced rates; children under six have a separate free-travel rule with conditions.
- A winter group rate requires at least 15 tickets and is limited to qualifying clubs, associations, companies, or schools.
- All standard Davos Klosters ski passes exclude Schatzalp, and ordinary tickets are generally not valid for night activities.
The official Davos Klosters tourism site describes around 300 kilometers of slopes spread across six ski areas. This gives beginners, families, experienced piste skiers, freeriders, and snowboarders plenty of terrain, but the best ticket depends on how many days you plan to ski and which mountains you want to use.
Ski Pass Options and Prices
Davos Klosters offers regional passes as well as tickets for individual mountains. For one- or two-day trips, a mountain-specific pass can make sense if you intend to stay in one ski area. The official online shop states that from three days, the ticket becomes a regional pass for the currently open mountains.
The standard age categories are adults from age 18, teenagers ages 13–17, and children ages 6–12. Prices below are in Swiss francs and include VAT.
Main-Season Regional Ski Pass Prices for 2026/27
The official main-season tariff is valid from December 18, 2026 through March 29, 2027. Restrictions can apply during the World Economic Forum period.
| Duration | Adult 18+ | Teen 13–17 | Child 6–12 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 day | CHF 94 | CHF 66 | CHF 38 |
| 2 days | CHF 171 | CHF 120 | CHF 68 |
| 3 days | CHF 230 | CHF 161 | CHF 92 |
| 4 days | CHF 286 | CHF 200 | CHF 114 |
| 5 days | CHF 342 | CHF 239 | CHF 137 |
| 6 days | CHF 390 | CHF 273 | CHF 156 |
| 7 days | CHF 427 | CHF 299 | CHF 171 |
Regional passes continue beyond seven days, up to 21 days. For example, the main-season adult price is CHF 470 for 8 days and CHF 875 for 21 days. From a six-day pass onward, an additional day is listed at CHF 60 for adults, CHF 42 for teenagers, and CHF 24 for children.
Low-Season Prices
The official 2026/27 low-season tariff applies from November 20 through December 17, 2026 and again from March 30 through April 11, 2027. The low-season sheet lists lower rates, including CHF 81 for an adult one-day ticket, CHF 211 for three days, CHF 354 for six days, and CHF 397 for seven days.
| Low-season duration | Adult | Teen | Child |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 day | CHF 81 | CHF 57 | CHF 32 |
| 3 days | CHF 211 | CHF 148 | CHF 84 |
| 6 days | CHF 354 | CHF 248 | CHF 142 |
| 7 days | CHF 397 | CHF 278 | CHF 159 |
Note: Operating mountains vary during the early and late parts of the season, so a cheaper low-season ticket does not necessarily mean every ski area is open. Always check current operating information before choosing your dates.
Main-Season Mountain-Specific Day Tickets
If you are skiing for only one or two days, you may not need the full regional pass. Main-season adult day prices include CHF 87 for Parsenn/Jakobshorn, CHF 69 for Rinerhorn, CHF 54 for Pischa, and CHF 73 for Madrisa. Youth and child prices are lower.
Regional winter tickets cover the Davos Klosters Mountains facilities specified in the official terms, but Schatzalp is excluded. Night skiing, night sledding, and other evening activities are also generally excluded from ordinary ski tickets.
Early Bird Discounts
There is no published blanket rule that ordinary Davos Klosters ski passes become 20% cheaper simply because you buy before a mid-November deadline. The official webshop does say online buyers can benefit from reduced prices on certain days, so checking the online price before paying at the mountain is worthwhile.
The clearest advance-purchase example for 2026/27 is the TopCard annual pass. The adult TopCard cost CHF 1,300 until April 30, 2026 and increased to CHF 1,550 from May 1, 2026. That advance-sale difference was CHF 250, or about 16.1% compared with the later price. The corresponding advance-sale deadline has already passed for the 2026/27 TopCard, and future-year deadlines may differ.
Pro Tip: Buy through the official webshop and reuse a compatible KeyCard if you already have one. A new KeyCard costs CHF 5, and the official ticket FAQ says the card is obligatory for passes of three days or more.
You can review current online ticket options at the official Davos Klosters ski-ticket shop.
Family and Group Discounts
Davos Klosters has reduced youth and child tariffs, family annual-pass products, under-six rules, senior reductions, and winter group rates. However, the current rules do not support a universal “10% family discount for three people” or “15% group discount for ten people.”
| Discount or rule | Eligibility | Current detail |
|---|---|---|
| Children under 6 | Accompanied by a parent/adult or snow-sports instructor | Free on eligible Davos Klosters mountain lifts; valley ski lifts are excluded. |
| Winter group rate | Minimum 15 tickets for clubs, associations, companies, or schools | Special group rates are available; the exact discount is provided by the ticket counters. |
| Senior reduction | Men 65+ and women 64+ | 10% on regional passes of 3–21 days; also applies to 1–2-day tickets Monday through Friday under the official rules. |
| TopCard family | 2 adults plus children through age 17 | CHF 3,150 for 2026/27 from May 1, 2026. |
The official terms define a family as at least one parent with at least one child or teenager. Blended families can qualify, and specific household rules apply when three or more children are included. With the TopCard family product, adult children ages 18–35 can be added for an extra fee.
For winter groups, simply combining unrelated hotel guests does not create an official group for discount purposes. The group leader must collect and pay for the qualifying tickets together, and the tickets must share the same validity period. Schools, companies, clubs, and associations planning a group trip should check the official Davos Klosters ticket terms or contact a ticket counter for the current group price.
Multi-Day Passes
Multi-day tickets are one of the simplest ways to reduce the average daily lift cost when you plan to ski several days. Standard regional passes are available for up to 21 days, rather than stopping at seven days.
During the 2026/27 main season, the adult regional price is CHF 171 for two days, CHF 230 for three days, CHF 342 for five days, CHF 390 for six days, and CHF 427 for seven days. The low-season adult rates are CHF 149 for two days, CHF 211 for three days, CHF 305 for five days, CHF 354 for six days, and CHF 397 for seven days.
The ordinary multi-day ticket should not be confused with a flexible choice pass. Davos Klosters also lists products that let you choose ski days within a larger window or throughout the season.
Flexible and Choice Tickets
| Main-season product | Adult | Teen | Child |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 freely selectable days, whole region | CHF 480 | CHF 336 | CHF 192 |
| 3 out of 5 days | CHF 250 | CHF 175 | CHF 100 |
| 5 out of 7 days | CHF 374 | CHF 262 | CHF 150 |
These flexible products can be valuable if you want rest days, expect uncertain weather, or plan other winter activities during your stay. They are different products from an ordinary consecutive multi-day regional ticket, so compare the total price before buying.
Season Passes
Frequent skiers have two important annual-pass concepts to understand: the TopCard and the local ESA pass. They are not interchangeable.
TopCard 2026/27
The TopCard is an annual summer-and-winter pass covering Davos Klosters, Arosa Lenzerheide, and Flims Laax. Current prices from May 1, 2026 are:
| TopCard 2026/27 | Price |
|---|---|
| Adult, 18+ | CHF 1,550 |
| Teenager, 13–17 | CHF 1,035 |
| Child, 6–12 | CHF 545 |
| Family, 2 adults plus children through 17 | CHF 3,150 |
The TopCard can be attractive for people who ski frequently, use several Graubünden destinations, or also use the mountain railways in summer. It should not be compared with a single-resort winter pass on price alone because its coverage is much broader.
ESA Annual Pass for Inhabitants
The ESA annual pass is a local product for eligible inhabitants of the Davos Klosters region. For summer 2026 and winter 2026/27, the official page lists CHF 780 for an adult, CHF 546 for a teenager, and CHF 1,720 for a family.
This distinction explains why quoting a generic adult “season pass” price of CHF 600–800 can be misleading. A qualifying local resident may have access to ESA pricing, while a non-resident considering the broader TopCard faces a different price and product.
Additional Benefits and Services
A Davos Klosters mountain-railway ticket can provide public-transport benefits, but the rules are more specific than saying every ski pass includes unrestricted local transportation.
Under the current regulations, mountain-railway tickets are accepted for specified journeys in Davos fare zones 400, 410, 420, and 430 and in Klosters zones 200/210 under the applicable winter-sports travel rules. Day and half-day tickets are tied to their validity day. Exact permitted journeys differ between Davos and Klosters, so read the official public-transport regulations if transportation is an important part of your ticket choice.
Overnight visitors may separately receive a Davos Klosters guest card through qualifying accommodation. The guest card can provide broader local transport privileges within its defined zones, so do not confuse guest-card benefits with the entitlements of the ski ticket itself.
Warning: Do not assume equipment rental, ski-school lessons, guided tours, restaurant discounts, priority lift access, or evening activities are automatically included with a standard ski pass. Those benefits may appear in separate hotel packages or promotions, but they are not universal ski-pass entitlements.
When buying online, each skier needs an individual compatible data carrier or KeyCard. If you do not already have one, the official webshop lists a CHF 5 charge for a new KeyCard. Existing compatible KeyCards can be reloaded, allowing you to go directly to the lift after activation rather than collecting a new card.
Conclusion and Tips for Saving Money
The best way to save on Davos Klosters ski passes is to match the ticket to the way you will actually ski. If you are skiing only one or two days on a single mountain, compare the mountain-specific ticket with the regional pass. For three or more days, check the current regional pricing. If you want rest days, compare the 3-of-5, 5-of-7, or flexible 6-day products rather than automatically buying consecutive days.
Families should use the published child, teenager, under-six, and family-product rules rather than relying on an assumed percentage discount. Qualifying clubs, associations, companies, and schools should request the winter group rate once they have at least 15 tickets. Seniors who meet the official age rules should also check the 10% reduction conditions.
If you ski very frequently, compare the TopCard with the residents-only ESA if you qualify. Also check low-season dates because published tariffs can be noticeably lower than the main-season rates. Before paying, confirm the official webshop price, operating status, ticket validity, and whether your existing KeyCard can be reused.
Accommodation packages can sometimes bundle lodging and lift tickets, so it can also be worth comparing the total trip cost rather than looking only at the lift-pass price. If you are staying in a self-catering chalet and planning your food as well, this site’s homemade cottage cheese recipe is an optional après-ski food idea, although it is unrelated to ski-pass pricing.
