Family Specials

We love seeing families here at Porters, and we want to ensure we offer you some of the most affordable and best value skiing around.

2018 Family Saver Rates

We love to see the whole family enjoying time on the snow at Porters, and so if you bring your family skiing to Porters, we will give you 15% off packages, day passes, rentals and group lessons. This applies when at least two members of the same immediate family (must include one child and either a parent or grandparent) buy ar least two full price lift passes, rentals, group lessons or packages. It cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer. 

Interchangeable Parents Pass

We appreciate that some parents have children who require constant attention. So, we’ve made it easier for those parents who still like to tear up the slopes. We’ve introduced the interchangeable parents pass. Those purchasing a full-price adult day pass ($99) from the ticket office with their partner and their toddler (3 and under) will be issued with two adult day passes, so as they can both enjoy a few turns. Please note that this does not apply to those people who ski with a baby in a backpack, a practice against which we strongly advise. If you’re unsure, please contact the ticket office direct with further queries.

Porters Kids Camp

We realise your little ones need specialised care, attention and instruction when learning to ski. Let us take care of teaching them their first turns. Experience shows that they will improve far more quickly from our instructors who are well trained and positioned to teach them. Our Kids Camp runs every Sunday and each day in the July school holidays for young skiers aged 4 to 6 years. Sessions run from 10.30am to 12.30pm, giving you parents enough time for a good morning's skiing all over the mountain!
