FAQ's

We utilize dynamic pricing, so our lift tickets will be different prices based on what day you purchase tickets for and how far in advance you buy your tickets. Generally speaking, lift tickets will be cheaper on weekdays and more expensive at peak times, like weekends and holidays. See our calendar for pricing.

 Purchase Lift Tickets

We strongly recommend purchasing everything in advance to reserve your spot. For weekends and holidays, we recommend purchasing tickets at least two weeks in advance. Lessons sell out regularly. If our online store says that we are sold out, we are also sold out in-person and will not sell any walk-ins.

Yes! Although it is called a "lift" ticket, it is not specific to our chair lift. A lift ticket is an admission ticket for anyone who is going to be out on the snow, skiing or snowboarding. It will give you access to all of our lifts, including our conveyor belts, rope tow, handle tow, and chair lift. If you are planning to only ski/snowboard on the bunny/beginner hill, we do offer a beginner area ticket. This ticket will give you access to our two beginner areas, serviced by conveyor belts. Children 6 years old and younger can receive a free tot ticket, with the purchase of an adult ticket (redeemed at the ticket window upon arrival).

Yes! We have a pro shop which sells Little Switzerland and other branded apparel, gloves & mittens, hats, snow pants, helmets, goggles, sunglasses, stickers, travel mugs, and other gift shop items.

Unfortunately, no. We update our waivers each year, so guests will need to sign a new waiver each season.

Helmets are not required, but they are strongly encouraged! If you need a helmet, they are included in our Ski and Snowboard rental packages, and we rent them out to guests for $7 per person per day. If you would like to purchase a helmet, we sell some in our pro shop!

Absolutely, we can help you with that! Please fill out some information here: Lost-and-Found. Please be specific, we find dozens of lone black gloves (for example). Please provide details like brand, size, color, markings like a child's name, and features that help us find your item.

If Little Switzerland closes due to inclement weather, all tickets, rentals, and lessons will either be transferred/rescheduled to another day, or we will refund everything. All guests will be notified through email, our website, and social media.

We encourage all guests to only arrive with what they need to ski/board and to leave everything else at home or in their car. We have a limited number of cubbies and lockers, reserved for guests renting equipment. Any unattended items found in our lodge will be moved to the cubbies in our rentals building.

Dogs are not allowed in the chalet and restaurant area. However, service dogs compliant with ADA's definition of "service animal" that are specifically trained to perform a task for the person with a disability are allowed. These include hearing dogs, guide dogs, seizure alert animals, and allergen alert animals. Please contact management upon arrival to approve.

Little Switzerland allows traditional equipment, skis or snowboards with a metal edge. Sno-skates, hill foot traffic, and equivalent are not allowed for safety and insurance reasons. Sno-go bikes are allowed. Contact us to confirm your equipment will be allowed.

We do require a waiver for tickets, rentals, lessons, and season passes. You have the option for an additional fee to opt out of signing the release. Once finished signing the correct form, please call us at (262) 297-9621 to complete your order. Fees will be collected at time of redemption.

Season pass insurance is an optional add-on for $10 per pass and covers the following unforeseen personal events:
