General questions about the webshop

No. However, we recommend you to register, because your data including payment method are already stored for repeated bookings. This way you can get to the slopes even faster.

Your ski pass can be loaded onto a data carrier from SKIDATA or a SwissPass. The data carrier can be reused for the next pass purchase.

If you do not have a SKIDATA data carrier or a SwissPass, select the “pick-up” option when booking online. You will receive an e-mail confirmation with which you can pick up your pass at all ticket offices or a cable car ticket machine in the Adelboden-Lenk ski region. You can reuse the Keytix we issue next time you visit us.

In our webshop, you can use the following payment methods in addition to Visa or MasterCard: Twint, PostCard, Post DirectPay, Reka and SwissPass invoice.

You can find all the information about the operating hours here.

Dynamic pricing system

A dynamic pricing model is – as the name suggests – dynamic and continuously recalculates ski pass prices. An algorithm calculates the price. The current price is made up of various factors – season phase (high or low season), day of the week, booking date, current booking status in the webshop and, from a certain point onwards, the weather forecast. In any case, the earlier you book your pass, the cheaper the price. The price seen is always the cheapest, and it will not go down.

With our new pricing strategy, we want to offer guests the best possible service because those who book early benefit from attractive booking discounts. In contrast to the previous system with fixed prices, the dynamic pricing model does justice to various price perceptions, which means we are again appealing to a greater number of guests with a decreased willingness to pay.

The dynamic pricing model can also direct guest flows, making the on-site experience even better for you as a skier. The aim is to utilize the facilities and areas of Adelboden-Lenk more evenly, to make skiing more attractive in terms of price during the low season and to reduce waiting times in the valley and at facilities in the ski areas.

The mountain cable cars in the Adelboden-Lenk ski region are introducing a new, dynamic pricing model for the 2023/24 winter season. With the new pricing strategy, we want to offer our guests the best possible service because those who book early benefit from attractive early booking discounts. The pass prices will no longer go down.

Generally, the earlier you book, the cheaper your pass. The price will not go down.

You also save money as a guest if you book outside the high season or for lower-demand days (e.g., weekdays instead of weekends). We recommend buying your ski pass in the webshop because guests who book early benefit from lower prices.

You save time, don’t have to queue and enjoy more twists and turns on the slopes. You can load your pass directly onto a SKIDATA data carrier (Adelboden-Lenk or another ski resort with the skidata system) and pass directly through the turnstile without queuing. Also, you will get the best pass price if you book early.

In addition to the fact that families also benefit from attractive early booking discounts thanks to the dynamic pricing model, the following three sub-areas offer the 1-day ticket for children every Saturday at the attractive fixed rate of CHF 15.00: Betelberg Lenk, Engstligenalp Adelboden, Tschentenalp Adelboden.

No. The group rates and the prices for schools are not priced dynamically. However, there are two different fixed rates. If you are travelling with a group, we recommend comparing the fixed group rates with the current dynamic rates in the webshop store before booking.

No. The pass insurance included in the price provides cover if the pass cannot be used owing to the following:
