What is Ski Insurance?

Ski insurance is part of your protective gear while on the slopes. It covers unexpected costs, from medical emergencies to equipment loss or trip cancellations.

Skiing and snowboarding carry inherent risks, and medical expenses—especially in remote areas—can be sky-high. Insurance also covers weather-related delays and reimbursements for non-refundable unused lift passes, snow sport equipment, hire or tuition fees you can’t use due to injury or illness.

We also cover you if you’re prevented from hitting the slopes for more than 24 hours due to lifts shutting because of too little or too much snow.

In short, it’s your protection on the mountain for those unexpected bumps along the way.

Why Should You Get Ski Insurance?

Here are some solid reasons why you should always have insurance when having fun in the snow:
