Wilde Krimml 2.0: New Zell-Gerlos Connection Opens In Zillertal Arena

Even though the new "Wilde Krimml" connecting lift has already been transporting guests in the Zillertal Arena quickly and comfortably for around 2 months, those responsible were keen to hold an official opening ceremony, including the blessing of the new lifts. "The redesign of the connection between Zell and Gerlos is a milestone project.

Energy-saving drive & viewing platform at 2,500 m

During the planning phase, not only was state-of-the-art ropeway technology from LEITNER used and the LEITNER DIRECTDRIVE, a virtually noiseless and energy-saving drive system, but an architectural statement was also made in collaboration with the internationally renowned architectural firm Snøhetta.

The new stations impress with their sleek design and not only create a state-of-the-art workplace for employees, but also a further highlight for all visitors: from the mountain station, there is a viewing platform at the highest point of the Zillertal Arena with a 360-degree panoramic view.
