You must BUY AHEAD ONLINE, and then upon arrival visit a Go Card Ticket Kiosk to pick up your card using a QR code from your confirmation email. Then hit the slopes and GO! 

 It is easy and once you pick up the card from the kiosk - it is yours to use season after season.

REMEMBER

Daily lift tickets for the 2023/24 season, including all single and multi-day tickets, are now exclusive to The Highlands. If you are interested in skiing at both Boyne Mountain and The Highlands, you will want to consider our Boyne Michigan season pass options.

Lost or damaged Go-Cards and Season Passes will require a $5 replacement. Refrain from punching a hole in your Go-Card, this will damage the RFID antenna.

    Lift ticket purchases are date-specific, non-transferable, and non-refundable. However, if you cannot use your tickets on the dates you intended, you have another option. Easy Change allows us to transfer the dollar value of your purchase to a credit voucher that expires two years from the transfer date. You may pay a difference in price, but you don't lose the value of your original purchase and have the flexibility to come any other day and even use it on another activity. 

    To make the change, you MUST give us a call at 231- 526-3030 by 3 PM prior to the day your pre-purchased ticket starts, and we will put the credit value of your ticket on a voucher.

    Winter: November 1 through October 31Summer: May 1 through April 30

    Choose the wrong date? We're happy to apply your credit to a voucher so you can make that change - we'll give you a voucher code to use online or in-person, no refunds available. 

    *Credits are valid toward the online or in-person purchase of resort activities for two years from the start of the season. Changes are not available on tickets purchased through a third party, and are non-transferable. Refunds are not issued if credits are applied toward a lower-priced ticket or are unused within two years.
