Children under 6 years of age travel free of charge on cable cars and ski lifts in the Garmisch-Classic area when accompanied by their parents. For transport without parental accompaniment, however, infants require a valid ticket.

• A winter season pass for small children can be purchased for repeated transport, for example as part of a ski course. Price: 74 euros.
• Reduced rate: If at least one parent is the holder of a valid season pass, the price for the pass for small children is 47 euros.
