It is the ideal choice for a peaceful walk in nature, for a meal or a coffee in the chalets at the end of the gondola in Baderitsa. The ticket includes one ascent and one descent, but is not allowed for two ascents and does not cover the use of other lifts.<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">\n<p><strong>SKI PASS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The ski pass is the ticket that gives you full access to all the lifts on the mountain. With unlimited daily use of the ski lifts at the ski resort and the gondola, the ski pass covers all routes, whether you decide to use them or not. There is no different price for the ski pass if you do not use the gondola.<\/p>\n<p>Some beginner skiers\/snowboarders who want to save money opt for the gondola-only ticket to reach the gondola finish in Baderica. So they can enjoy the beginners&#8217; slopes without using the lifts. Some also choose to take a taxi or bus instead of the gondola to save money.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>CAUTION<\/strong>: In these cases, keep in mind that the gondola ticket does not include insurance and is not intended for this use. Also, skiing &amp; snowboarding on the ski road without a ski pass is not covered insurance. This means that in the event of an accident on the track, free transport to the medical centre is not provided. If you need this service and you don&#8217;t have a ski pass, you will have to pay for it (cost from 25 to 300 euros).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The use of the ski pass is valid from 08:00 to 17:30 in the afternoon of the same day. Ski passes are strictly personal and cannot be transferred to another person. Each lift has a camera and an electronic system that creates the user&#8217;s profile with a high-resolution photo. If the ski pass is used by another person and checked by the lift staff, the card is cancelled and the user must leave the resort or buy a new card.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Ski passes include mountain insurance, which covers your transport to the ski resort&#8217;s medical centre and a basic examination. However, we recommend that you take out additional personal insurance for possible bodily injury and travel with your European Health Card, if you have one.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The price of the lift tickets is not refundable in case of non-operation of the gondola and the lifts due to bad weather, power outage or other force majeure. No refund or transfer of remaining days is provided in case of schedule change or injury.<\/p>\n<p>The student lift card is issued upon presentation of a valid and certified academic ID (pass).<\/p>\n<p>The half-day lift pass is only sold from 12:00 onwards, but is activated from 12:30 and valid until the end of the day.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Any unused days of the &#8220;Bansko-twenty&#8221; card are not transferred to the next winter season and are not redeemed.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The 2022-2023 winter season is valid from 17 December 2022 to 17 April 2023. The management company of the ski resort reserves the right to change the opening and closing dates of the season depending on the weather and snow conditions.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-a629627 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default parallax_section_no qode_elementor_container_no\" data-id=\"a629627\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-3aadd0b\" data-id=\"3aadd0b\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SKI LIFTS GONDOLA | Opening hours: 08:00 &#8211; 17:30 The Gondola of Bansko is the door to the snow paradise, a link between the town and the integrated ski resort.
