Ikon Pass · China · winter 26/27

Ikon Pass destinations in China

For travelers who already hold an Ikon Pass or Ikon Base. Days below are per destination (not shared across the three). Ikon Session typically has no access to these Asia resorts. Access rules change yearly — re-check ikonpass.com / compare-passes. Verification label: 2026-10-31 from SKI-NOTES / official Ikon destination pages.

Policies and pass rules change. Confirm with resorts and ikonpass.com. Ikon access ≠ immigration permission. For TWOV stay-area questions, see China Transit Guide and verify with NIA / 12367. Holding an Ikon Pass does not change TWOV stay areas: prefer Yunding / Chongli with Beijing hubs for short inbound framing; Beidahu and Lake Songhua need a visa or other lawful entry unless official rules change and you re-verify.
Season context Winter 25/26: Yunding Snow Park was the first Chinese Ikon partner. Winter 26/27 (current): Yunding + Beidahu + Lake Songhua. Alterra Asia announcements describe no blackout dates for these new Asia/China adds; the Full / Ikon Pass also has no blackouts globally — still confirm on official pass pages for your year. We do not invent blackout exceptions or reservation rules beyond official notes.
