Lispach is La Bresse’s small alpine ski area: five drag lifts and eight runs (three green, three blue, one red, one black), in a complex that also includes cross-country skiing. Its 2026/2027 price grids have been published since September. Here is what they say, reread on the website and on the three official PDFs on 11 October: passes, equipment rental, stay packs and the rules to know. No opening date is announced at this point, and all the runs are shown closed.
Lift passes: blue rate and red rate
Lispach sets two price levels. The blue rate applies from Monday to Friday outside school holidays (France and Benelux). The red rate applies on Saturdays, Sundays and during school holidays. The half day runs from 9 am to 1 pm or from 1 pm.
| Profile | Half day | 1 day | 2 days (per day) | 3 days and more (per day) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blue rate adult | 16.50 euros | 19 euros | 18 euros | 16.50 euros |
| Blue, student 13-24 or senior 65+ | 15.50 euros | 18 euros | 17 euros | 15.50 euros |
| Blue, junior 5-12 | 14 euros | 16 euros | 15 euros | 14 euros |
| Blue, beginner | 10.50 euros | 12 euros | 11 euros | 10.50 euros |
| Red rate adult | 18.50 euros | 22 euros | 21 euros | 18.50 euros |
| Red, student 13-24 or senior 65+ | 16.50 euros | 20 euros | 19 euros | 16.50 euros |
| Red, junior 5-12 | 15.50 euros | 17 euros | 16 euros | 15.50 euros |
| Red, beginner | 11.50 euros | 13 euros | 12 euros | 11.50 euros |
The beginner pass only gives access to the two green-run lifts, the École lift and the Lac lift. Children under 5 ski free on presentation of proof of age. The student rate requires a card for the current year. A single ticket costs 1.50 euros and a 10-ticket card 12 euros: the Lac, École and Saichy lifts take one ticket, the Mariron two and the Lispach three. The site sells Ticket Neige insurance at 3 euros per day.
With the ZAP card of the Vosges department, reductions apply when the resort only opens partially on artificial snow during the red period. For families, a promotion exists from four people including two adults, or from five including one adult: the 2026-2027 amount is not published on the page, ask at the ticket office. An alpine pass of six days or more gives a voucher to try one day of cross-country skiing at Lispach free of charge during its validity period.
Equipment rental, 2026/2027 prices
Rental opens from 8:30 am on season days. The official grid carries the heading “Season 2026/2027”. The prices below are per day, and the seventh rental day is free.
| Equipment | Half day | 1 or 2 days | 3 or 4 days | 5 days | 6 days and more |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eco ski pack, 13 and over | 16 euros | 19 euros | 18 euros | 17 euros | 16 euros |
| Comfort ski pack or snowblades, 13 and over | 20.50 euros | 24.50 euros | 23 euros | 22 euros | 21 euros |
| Eco ski pack, 7-12 | 13 euros | 16 euros | 15 euros | 14 euros | 13 euros |
| Comfort ski pack, 7-12 | 16 euros | 20 euros | 18 euros | 17 euros | 16 euros |
| Ski pack, under 7 | 10.50 euros | 13.50 euros | 12 euros | 11 euros | 10 euros |
| Snowboard pack, 13 and over | 25 euros | 29 euros | 28 euros | 27 euros | 26 euros |
| Helmet, all sizes | 3 euros | 4 euros | 3 euros | 2.50 euros | 2 euros |
| Snowshoes with poles, 13 and over | 9 euros | 11 euros | 10 euros | 9 euros | 8 euros |
The pack includes skis, boots and poles. The Comfort range means equipment less than four years old, the Eco range older equipment. Evening storage is free for equipment rented on site. For 1 euro more per item and per day, equipment insurance covers breakage in normal use and theft on presentation of a police report. Booking an alpine pack on the website, for full days, gives 10 to 20 percent off the shop price, with free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start. To compare with the rental shops of the main resort, read ski rental in La Bresse.
The 6 and 7 day stay packs
The pack combines the pass for the whole area, full rental at the price of the Eco range and the helmet. It is bought on site, in two payments: the pass at the lift ticket offices, then the rental at the rental shop. It cannot be booked online, and the site asks you not to rent equipment online in this case.
| Profile | 6 days outside holidays | 7 days outside holidays | 6 days in holidays | 7 days in holidays |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adult | 195 euros | 211.50 euros | 207 euros | 225.50 euros |
| Student (13 to 16 or student card) | 189 euros | 204.50 euros | 195 euros | 211.50 euros |
| Junior (under 13) | 162 euros | 176 euros | 171 euros | 186.50 euros |
| Baby (under 7) | 144 euros | 158 euros | 153 euros | 168.50 euros |
| Beginner baby (two lifts) | 123 euros | 133.50 euros | 129 euros | 140.50 euros |
Adding up the unit prices of the two previous tables gives these amounts: for an adult on weekdays, 6 days of pass at 16.50 euros and 6 days of Eco rental at 16 euros make 195 euros, and the free seventh rental day gives the 211.50 euros of the 7 day pack. According to this calculation on the published grids, the pack therefore does not lower the bill compared with the degressive rates, whereas the Good deals page announces an average 20 percent discount on the daily rate. Its benefit is the included helmet (2 euros per day at unit price) and a price known in advance.

Lispach or the Hohneck
In our view, Lispach is aimed first at beginners and families, with its school lift and beginner pass. The Hohneck area, which has 29 runs according to the Labellemontagne page reread the same day, suits, in our view, skiers who want more choice. The prices of both areas appear in the comparison of passes in the Vosges, and the Hohneck opening calendar in the 2026-2027 ski season. For cross-country, the Lispach area and the tracks without a pass in Ventron, Truches and Haut du Tôt complete the picture.
