What is a Mountain Access Card?

Mountain Access Cards are reusable cards that are used to hold your season pass access and benefits, lift ticket access, lesson purchases and mountain money.

You must have a Mountain Access Card with you to access lifts and lessons in Hotham. They can be purchased online and collected at our lift ticket pick up machines. Find out more about Mountain Access Cards here.

When hitting the slopes, make sure you keep your Mountain Access Card on the left, away from your mobile phone or credit cards, for easy scanning at the lift gates.

If you have purchased a new Mountain Access Card with your online order, you can collect your card on arrival in resort at one of our lift ticket pick up machines at the below locations:

  • Hotham Central Guest Services
  • OneTree Sports in Hotham Central
  • Hotham Central Hallway, outside Snowsports School office
  • Big D Kids Snowsports Centre

Ski free lift passes

Children 4-yrs and under get to ski or snowboard for free. All you need is a valid Mountain Access Card, from there we can load your free lift pass. Alternatively, an Epic Australia Pass for Infants can also be purchased for free, just remember it must be ordered before Epic Australia Pass goes off-sale. Children under four need to be accompanied by a paying adult.

Ski free afternoons

For lift tickets of 3 days or more, ski or snowboard for free after 3pm on the day prior to your selected start day of your lift ticket! Don't forget that this deal extends to your equipment hire if you book with Hotham Sports.

Over 70’s Season Pass

Our over 70’s season passes can be purchased online for unlimited access to all of Hotham, Falls Creek and Perisher's operating lifts for the winter season.

*The Over 70's Pass is not an Epic Australia Pass and therefore, while providing access to Hotham, Falls Creek and Perisher, it does not provide the overseas resort access that the Epic Australia Pass does.
