‘We Are Positive About The Future’ - New Salvista Gondola Lift In The SkiWelt Itter Will Go Ahead

At the start of the COVID-19 preventive measures taken from March 15, those responsible for the Bergbahnen Hohe Salve Hopfgarten-Itter faced major challenges. Can the new Salvista Railway be built at all or do you have to move it? The situation was not easy for everyone. To what extent can employees continue to work or are partner companies allowed to work at all. When are you allowed to enter and work in Tyrol, the state with the strictest rules? Which additional security measures have to be taken?

However, exactly in difficult times it pays off even more to have many long-term, motivated and excellent specialists in your own company. In addition, as in earlier times, the mountain railway relied on regional and Austrian partners from construction and craft companies for this major project, the renewal of the Salvista Railway and other trades. So with the construction on 14.04. be started.

The old Salvista Railway will continue to be used. As with most of the lifts in the SkiWelt over the past years and decades, the old Salvista lift from 1989, including its supports, was resold and is now being used elsewhere.

The same route is used for the new Salvista cableway up to the middle station, and the 650 m extension extends to the Kleine Salve. A new storage lake and technology center is being built just below the mountain station. The infrastructure in the valley station building with sports shop, ski rental and ski depot will be completely renewed. Above all, a better connection of public transport and ski buses for locals and guests is particularly important to the Bergbahnen Hohe Salve Hopfgarten - Itter. Public mobility is our future and the SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental has for years focused on improving connections and creating new offers. So the focus of this construction is also on

The anticipation is rising! At the start of the season for the new Salvista Panorama gondola lift, the Hohe Salve Hopfgarten-Itter cable cars are already warmly inviting everyone interested
