What is a BaqueiraPASS?
This year Baqueira Beret has changed its traditional lift pass into the new BaqueiraPASS, which is a magnetic card that’s available for a non-refundable €10 deposit (unless you already have one to recharge). This convenient card is simply loaded with access to the lifts for the number of days you need it. The BaqueiraPASS is a photo-card, meaning that every skier must fill in a questionnaire and send/have a picture taken for it.
How does it work?
The BaqueiraPASS is the size of a credit card that can be easily put in the pocket and it allows the holder to simply walk through lift controls with entry being allowed via a magnetic reader (We recommend not having other things in the same pocket). If you want to have your card delivered to your house (Only possible in Spain & France), you need to request yours 7 days in advance or if you want to collect it at the resort, you can order it the day before.
The Advantages
There are a number of advantages to possessing a BaqueiraPASS which include:
- You’ll have your hands free at the lift control
- You can reload online, so you can get straight onto the slopes without queueing
- It’s faster to recharge and you can add family members and friends to your private areas so you can all recharge online together
- It can be reused over several seasons
- It’s possible to charge it annually, weekly or by the day
- You get to enjoy better prices, as you get a 5% discount compared to Baqueira Ticket Office prices when you recharge daily

It also includes, in a limited way, medical care at the Baqueira 1500 Medical Centre, which is private and unrelated to the Resort.
