Winter sports enthusiasts, who up to now had to use surface lifts to access this area, can now take a four-minute ride up to an elevation of some 2,630 m on the new 10-passenger gondola lift. This installation is also the first of new D-Line ropeway generation from Doppelmayr. As well as offering considerably greater comfort, the lift provides shorter trip times and a well-conceived modern design which is totally unique in the ropeway world – above all in terms of its low noise level at high speed and its maintenance friendliness. The lift has a capacity of 2,400 passengers an hour and a speed of 6 m/s. Its generously dimensioned CWA cabins have heated seats.
