Epic Pass Adds 6 New Austrian Ski Resorts for 2025/26 Season
Vail Resorts has dramatically expanded the Epic Pass European offering by adding six major Austrian ski resorts for the 2025/26 season. The announcement, rolled out over three days in May 2025, brings Saalbach, Zell am See-Kaprun, Mayrhofen, Hintertux, and Silvretta Montafon into the Epic Pass network.
The announcements came strategically before the May 26th Epic Pass pricing deadline. On May 21st, Saalbach and Zell am See-Kaprun were revealed. May 22nd brought Mayrhofen and Hintertux, followed by Silvretta Montafon on May 23rd.
Currently, these Austrian ski resorts are only available on the USA version of the Epic Pass, not the Epic Australia pass. However, they're expected to be added to Australian pass options when sales open for the following season.

The Austrian additions bring the Epic Pass European network to 33 resorts across nine ski areas. This represents a fundamental shift from a North American pass with international perks to a genuine global skiing platform.
Combined with existing St. Anton access, Epic Pass holders now have seven Austrian ski resorts offering over 800 kilometres of pistes served by more than 200 lifts. The access structure provides 15 days across the new resort pairs, plus unlimited access to St. Anton.
