The opening of all the lifts and the skiability of all the slopes are not guaranteed. The lifts and slopes are open to the public as per the operating program prepared by the Management. Due to force majeure (electromechanical faults, adverse weather conditions, etc.) or for the carrying out of events, competitions or competitive training, one or more lifts as well as slopes may be closed to the public without this constituting any reason for compensation to the ski pass holder. It is expressly forbidden to use the ski slopes outside the operating hours: transgressors will be responsible for any consequences of this violation. To deal with the energy crisis and the negative forecasts on the trend of energy supply costs, the functioning of the lifts and skiable slopes will be decided daily at the manager's discretion with possible limitations on the use of the skiable area and of usable facilities. Upon the occurrence of this event due to the Management's unquestionable decision, the exclusion of any form of reimbursement or indemnity is expressly foreseen, which the user explicitly accepts with the conclusion of the ski pass purchase contract, renouncing any claim. On the website www.bormioski.eu, in the appropriate section, the ski lifts and ski slopes open for a single day will be indicated, as well as on the monitors installed at the Bormio ticket offices that the user can consult before buying the ski pass.

  11. The ski pass, transport document, performs the function of receipt (Ministerial Decree 06/30/1992 and subsequent amendments and additions) and constitutes the only document suitable for proving the conclusion of the contract between the lift company and the transported person, who , in case of failure to show at the request of the personnel in charge, is required to pay the amount due for the route travelled.

  12. At the time of purchasing the ski pass, the customer must verify that it corresponds with the requirements; it is not possible to subsequently change or extend the duration of a card already in use. For passes valid from 5 days, it is possible to purchase a one-day extension of the validity of the original pass at the 4-hour ski pass rate.

  13. To obtain delivery of the named ticket, it is necessary to provide your identification data, as well as, where required, a recent photograph with an uncovered face that makes the identity of the person entitled to the named ticket easily recognizable.  At the time of purchase and before the ticket is issued, the passenger must indicate the right to any reductions (Senior, Junior, Baby) by presenting a valid identity document. The passenger is obliged to verify at the time of purchase that the ticket issued corresponds to the service requested by him.

The use of the ticket or the device in a way different from the terms of the contracts, the abuse, the alteration and any other behavior of the passenger aimed at taking an unfair advantage from the ticket or the device that incorporates it determines the termination of the contract due to non-fulfilment of the transported person pursuant to art. 1456 of the Civil Code, without giving the right to refunds, remaining in the company's right to act for compensation for any greater damage suffered, even if the travel document is issued in non-nominative form. The verification of the correct use of each type of card can take place in remote mode after transit through the turnstiles using the "Photo compare" system present on some lifts, which makes it possible to verify the identity of those transiting through the turnstiles through non-automated facial recognition. In the event of a mismatch between the holder of the purchased travel document and the person transiting the lifts, the ski pass will be blocked.
