The Kronplatz skiing area is getting a new slope!

The famous World Cup piste Erta in San Vigilio di Marebbe is getting a new variant: from the winter season 2022/23 the black piste Sorega will enrich the variety of pistes in the ski area Plan de Corones. Just like the World Cup slope Erta, the new slope will also demand the fullest skill and a large portion of courage from the skiers.

Re-Styling Chairlift Arndt

For the coming winter season 2018/19 there is also an innovation in Olang.
The Arndt chairlift has a brand-new look!
In the course of the 20-year revision, the entire electronics and control system will be updated.
An extensive makeover has turned its chairs into an even more family- and child-friendly skiing experience. And for added comfort and maximum safety, the new chairs feature ergonomically designed leather seats and each equipped with an individual footrest.

Skitrans Bronta

The connecting lift "Skitrans Bronta" presents itself in the upcoming winter season 2018/2019 with new and highly efficient gondolas.
The choice fell on modern 12-passenger cabins made of aluminum with folding seats from the Sigma / Leitner company.
They now allow a more pleasant journey between the Miara valley station and the Piz de Plaies valley station, near the village center of St. Vigil.
