BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- Mt. Bachelor will begin selling 2026/27 season passes on March 24, featuring a "Buy Now, Ski Now" perk that grants new passholders immediate access to the slopes starting April 1. The new incentive allows purchasers to use their passes for the remainder of the current spring season in addition to the full 2026/27 winter season.
The early sales period runs through June 2, 2026, offering the lowest rates of the year and renewal discounts of up to $100 for returning guests. Mt. Bachelor is also providing retail credits of up to $100 and a "Kids Ski Free" option for children age 12 or under with the purchase of an adult pass.
John Merriman, president and general manager of Mt. Bachelor, expressed gratitude to the local community for their support during the current winter. Merriman noted that the resort has a full schedule of activities planned for the upcoming month.
"I'm so grateful to our passholders for coming out and making the most of this season," Merriman said. "This community is special and despite challenging conditions, our passholders continued to show up and have a great time on the mountain together. April is packed full of events and we look forward to welcoming new Mt. Bachelor passholders this spring with our "Buy Now, Ski Now" option."
The Full Season Pass is priced at $1,249 for renewals and $1,349 for new purchasers. This pass offers daily access with no blackout dates or restrictions. Each purchase includes a $50 retail credit for the Mt. Bachelor Sports Pro Shop and allows the adult passholder to add a free season pass for a child age 12 or under. Full Season renewal prices have remained flat compared to the previous year.
The premier Outplay 365 Pass costs $1,899 for renewals and $1,999 for new members. This year-round multi-sport pass includes unlimited alpine skiing and snowboarding at the resort, an Ikon Base Pass and access to the Nordic Center. It also features a 2026 Mt. Bachelor Bike Park Season Pass and provides a $100 retail credit. Like the Full Season option, it includes the "Kids Ski Free" benefit for children age 12 or under.
Mt. Bachelor also offers several specialized pass tiers, including a Midweek Pass for $949 that provides access Monday through Friday. A five-Day Pass is available for $419, which breaks down to $84 per day of use. For those interested in cross-country skiing, the Nordic Pass is priced at $399 and covers 56 kilometers of groomed trails and three snowshoe loops with views of the Cascades.
The resort is located on a 9,065-foot volcanic peak and offers 4,323 acres of lift-accessible terrain. It is served by 12 lifts and three carpets, including seven high-speed quads and one high-speed six-pack lift. Mt.

Beyond winter sports, the resort offers summer attractions such as mountain biking, zip-lining and whitewater rafting.
