Cardrona Ski Area is now open for 2025. With an incredible effort from the snowmaking team and some help from Mother Nature, Cardrona opens on Saturday with both the McDougall’s Chondola and the Learner Conveyors running. Skiers and snowboarders will be able to access McDougall’s trail and the Beginners’ Area from Opening Day, and the North Face Cardrona Parks Crew will put in a few features in McPark (the temporary early season terrain park under McDougall’s – a locals’ favourite of the start of each winter).

Refreshments can be sourced at Mezz, Base Cafe, Base Bar, and Vista Bar. Our new Base Area building is nearing completion, and we are aiming to get our new Cardrona Corner retail shop open on Saturday too.

To reflect the early season offering, day passes will be at early season rates, until Whitestar Express opens.

First chair tees will be up for grabs, so set those alarms and get up here for your first turns of Winter 2025!”

Looking great for this time of year!
