⛷️❤️✨ Plan your mental reset in the mountains as lift passes, lessons and rentals come on sale at Perisher, Falls Creek and Hotham!
10 March 2026
Australia’s leading ski resorts of Perisher, Falls Creek and Hotham are kicking off the countdown to winter with lift passes, lessons and rentals on sale now, giving snow lovers the chance to lock in great value ahead of the 2026 snow season.
“This will be a fantastic year to learn skiing or snowboarding and we hope to see more ‘bucket-list beginners’ trying the sport for the first time,” said Emily Smith, Senior Manager – Brand & Experience for Vail Resorts Australia. “Whether guests are stepping on snow for the very first time or returning with renewed aspirations, instructors at our resorts will be able to help them achieve their dreams – big or small.”
Many of the resort’s snowsports instructors and rental teams work at Vail Resorts’ international resorts, such as Canada’s Whistler Blackcomb, over the summer months in Australia – chasing winter year-round. They bring skills back with them to ensure highly qualified instruction for Australian guests and the benefit of year-round employment keeping their teaching techniques fresh.
“You don’t need to be an expert to enjoy the mountains,” said Emily. “Whether it’s fresh air and a short break from the city, or a more regular ritual to visit and find joy in the winter months, there’s never been a better time to take a mental reset in the mountains, from First Tracks to beginner bundles and après moments, there’s something for everyone.”
