Skiers and snowboarders can now experience the thrill of Olympic history with the Ikon Pass, which grants access to nine resorts that have hosted the Winter Olympics. From Chamonix, the site of the first Winter Games in 1924, to Deer Valley Resort in Utah, which will host the Games again in 2034, the pass offers a unique opportunity to explore iconic slopes.
Chamonix, located at the foot of Mont Blanc in France, remains a favourite for its challenging terrain and vibrant après-ski scene. Meanwhile, St. Moritz in Switzerland, which hosted the 1928 and 1948 Games, offers luxury alongside its 350 km of ski runs. In the UK, Palisades Tahoe in California, known for its snow reliability, continues to attract advanced skiers with its extensive terrain.
Deer Valley Resort, a ski-only destination in Utah, is undergoing significant expansion, doubling its size in preparation for the 2034 Winter Olympics. It also offers a 'Ski with a Champion' programme, allowing guests to ski alongside Olympic athletes. Nearby, Snowbasin, another 2002 Olympic venue, offers a mix of expert and beginner slopes.
Further afield, Cypress Mountain in Canada and Mona Yongpyong in South Korea provide diverse skiing experiences, whilst Yunding Snow Park in China boasts modern infrastructure and elite terrain. Cortina d’Ampezzo in Italy, set to host the 2026 Games, offers over 1,200 km of pistes as part of the Dolomiti Superski network.
The Ikon Pass, provided by Alterra Mountain Company, connects skiers with these historic and world-class destinations, offering a blend of adventure and Olympic legacy.
