PALM SPRINGS, CA — The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, one of Riverside County's greatest getaways, is selling passes for summer trips up the mountain starting Thursday.

The passes allow unlimited tram access and offer additional discounts for pass holders, according to a tramway spokesperson.

The passes will be valid from May 1 through August 31, 2025, and include unlimited tram rides, a 10% discount on additional tram admissions (limited to four), a 10% discount at Peaks Restaurant and Pines Café, and free parking, according to a statement from the tramway.

"Temperatures at the top of the Tramway are typically 30-40 degrees cooler than on the valley floor," officials said.

"Visitors are encouraged to dress in layers or bring a jacket due to the cooler conditions.

Passes are priced at $85 for adults and seniors and $45 for children ages 3 to 10. They can be purchased in person at the tramway station or online at pstramway.com/tickets
