Details about the Ikon Pass

Why the Silvretta Arena Ischgl/Samnaun is the ideal ski resort

With and without Ikon Pass

The cross-border Silvretta Arena Ischgl/Samnaun scores highly with its ski area altitude of up to almost 3,000 metres above sea level from the end of November to the beginning of May, guaranteeing snow.

Although our ski area in Ischgl does not have a glacier, skiers appreciate the high altitude and the top-notch snow-making system with 1,100 snow lances and cannons, which guarantee fantastic slopes throughout the winter season.
