Successful Season For Klausberg's New "SONNEN" Gondola

A groundbreaking improvement on the existing infrastructure, this state-of-the-art facility replaces the old 3-seater sun lift and allows guests to reach breathtaking heights of over 2,000 meters in just 6 minutes and 12 seconds.:

The SONNEN cable car is not only a symbol of progress and comfort, but also a sign of efforts to constantly improve the slopes and make them more attractive. With the new lift come new, wider and more attractive pistes that offer both beginners and experienced skiers an incomparable skiing experience.

In addition to improving the quality of the slopes, the new 10-seater "SONNEN" gondola will offer a direct connection to the valley run and K1 as well as to the cozy alpine huts.

Another highlight of the new lift is the lengthening of the entire lift line. This not only means extended travel time, but also extended enjoyment and even more opportunities to take in the majestic beauty of the surrounding Alps.

Last but not least, the new, higher mountain station of the "SONNEN" cable car offers a unique panoramic vantage point. From here you can enjoy the breathtaking view of the surrounding landscape and be enchanted by the incomparable beauty of South Tyrol.

As far as possible, the orders went to local companies so that production and delivery routes are kept short and efficient and the local economic cycles are promoted.
