Solitude Ski Resort offers 1,200 acres of exciting terrain for every ability level across 77 named runs and three bowls. The ski area opened in the fall of 1957 with two chairlifts providing access to most of the area now skied on the front of the mountain. Solitude installed Utah’s first high-speed detachable quad chairlift in 1989. The Village was completed in 2001 by Intrawest Corporation who was brought in to complete the master plan.
Solitude Resort is part of the IKON family of ski resort and can be skied on a regular lift pass as well as the IKON Pass.
Located 34 miles (54 km) from Salt Lake City International Airport, Solicitude is within easy access of Salt Lake and the other Utah partner IKON ski resorts destinations.

Solitude Early Bird Lift Specials
We have negotiated a number of early bird lift pass specials for that you can access when you get a quote.
Solitude IKON Pass Options
You can also ski and ride at Solitude on the IKON Pass. The IKON Pass is a multi-resort / multi-day ski pass that is available for purchase for a limited time each season.
Which Ski Pass Do I Choose – Solitude or IKON?
It depends on a number of factors including your skiing dates, the number of days you plan on skiing, early bird specials, if you are you planning on skiing any other IKON Pass resorts and importantly if there are any IKON Pass blackout dates that you need to factor in.
The best way to work out which pass option is best for you – is to pick both pass types when you prepare your quote – and then simply bin the pass option that doesn’t offer you the very best deal.
Some of the IKON Pass options have blackout dates, so be sure to double check and understand how they work by visiting this page – IKON Pass Explained.
