Why Brian Head Resort is Highly Rated for Value

Brian Head Resort has claimed the 2025 gold award for Best Ski Resort for Value - Worldwide with a stunning 4.86/5.00 rating, and the accolades are thoroughly deserved. Our reviewers consistently highlight the exceptional affordability of lift tickets, with Valeria, an intermediate skier, pointing out that day passes cost just $50-60 - particularly attractive when compared to pricier alternatives nearby. Accommodation costs also contribute significantly to the resort's value proposition, with Hilton Terrell noting that "overnight stays and lift tickets are at a super affordable price for an awesome experience." The cost-effectiveness extends to equipment rentals too, which Snomad users describe as reasonably priced with relatively new gear. This combination of affordable access and quality services makes Brian Head particularly appealing to budget-conscious visitors, from college students to families looking to maximise their skiing pound.

The resort is part of the highly regarded PowerPass. This pass offers skiing across 10+ resorts and even allows kids under 12 to ski free. Even if you don't have a pass, you can still grab lift tickets on weekdays for as little as $19. The overall value experience at Brian Head goes beyond just cheap tickets. Madden who described the food as "amazing" with "awesome" serving sizes. One Snomad community member liked that resort credit purchased with online tickets could be spent on both food and merchandise, adding extra value to the package. Amanda, an advanced snowboarder, summed up the resort's appeal perfectly as "affordable and fun," while others appreciate the short lift queues that ensure visitors get maximum slope time for their money. For families, beginners, or anyone watching their wallet, Brian Head delivers outstanding value without compromising on the skiing experience.

About the Snomad Ski Resort Awards

The Snomad Ski Resort Awards are the most authentic and unbiased recognition in the ski industry, based entirely on genuine guest experiences from real skiers and snowboarders.

Unlike other awards that rely on paid nominations or allow resorts to collect their own votes, ours are determined by verified ratings from actual visitors who have experienced these resorts firsthand.

This approach ensures that winning resorts truly deserve recognition based on guest satisfaction rather than marketing budgets or social media follower counts, providing you with trustworthy recommendations for your next mountain adventure.
