How to buy ski passes at Cerro Catedral (2026 season)

If you’re planning to ski at Cerro Catedral—one of the largest ski resorts in South America—one of the first questions is how to buy your ski passes.

Here’s everything you need to know to plan your ski experience for the 2026 season.

Without a ski pass, you won’t be able to use:

  • Chairlifts
  • Gondolas
  • Surface lifts

When should you buy your ski passes?

During peak winter season (July and August), it’s highly recommended to purchase your ski passes in advance.
In recent years, Cerro Catedral’s system has shifted primarily to online sales, which allows you to:

  • Avoid long lines
