On December 23, sales of a single ski pass will start, which allows outdoor enthusiasts to use the infrastructure of all three resorts of the Sochi mountain cluster. At the moment, the number of open trails makes it possible to start selling this product for all guests. The total ski area is more than 173 km: at Krasnaya Polyana Resort – 30 km, at Gazprom Polyana resort (Laura and Alpika) – 38.8 km and at Rosa Khutor resort - 105 km of trails. This is the largest combined ski area in Russia. The number of available trails is adjusted daily according to the current weather conditions.
Tourists have long appreciated the convenience and benefits of a single ski pass. More than 40 thousand people purchase it annually. The system uniting the resorts of the Sochi mountain cluster was implemented five years ago on behalf of the Government of the Russian Federation. It allows guests to choose different options for skiing on the slopes: at all three resorts or only one of them. A free shuttle service on comfortable buses is organized between the lower stations of the cable cars for holders of the current single ski pass.
