Loveland Ski Area is thrilled to announce that season passes for
the 2025/26 ski season will be available for purchase starting Thursday, April 3, 2025. In a
move that underscores its commitment to offering exceptional value, Loveland is keeping
prices at last year’s rates, offering one of the more affordable options for skiing in
Colorado.

For the first time, Loveland will offer an easy, flexible way to pay for season passes. The
new Payment Plan lets guests spread the cost of their pass over several months, with no
interest or tax fees. This means that skiers and riders can lock in the lowest possible price
and enjoy the benefits of their pass while breaking up payments, making the cost more
manageable.

“Holding our season pass prices steady for another year is a deliberate decision to show
how much we value our loyal passholders,” said Rob Goodell, Senior VP and COO at
Loveland Ski Area. “In a time when costs are going up everywhere, we’re committed to
keeping skiing at Loveland accessible and affordable. We’re also introducing the Easy Pay

guests are encouraged to act quickly to take advantage of these exceptional rates. As in
previous years, Loveland’s 4-Paks will go on sale in the fall, offering another great way for
guests to enjoy Loveland at an affordable price.
