Photo Checkpoint 1: 

Create a Personalised Explorer Pass with AI Photo in the “Gear Up” Kiosk

Guests are first invited to check in at the “Gear Up” kiosk, which features an A-frame architecture and interior inspired by holiday homes in Scandinavia. After registering on the campaign website, guests can generate an AI photo from a personal photo for free to use on their digital Explorer Pass. With this unique pass, they’re ready to kick off their SnowPark exploration!

Photo Checkpoint 2: 

Hop onto the Full-Scale “Ski Lift” to Admire the Snowy Landscape

Photo Checkpoint 3: 

Experience Hygge in the “Take a Break” Cabin
