    Ski lifts at the ski resort Schmittenhöhe – Zell am See

    Modern gondola lifts lead up to the ski resort from the valley, including the Schmittenhöhebahn lift with its Porsche Design gondolas. In the ski resort itself, modern chairlifts, some with weather-protection covers and heated seats, transport winter sports enthusiasts to the slopes Since the 2019/20 season, the 10-person cable car zellamseeXpress I + II 1 has provided a connection from the Glemmtal (Glemm Valley) to the Schmittenhöhe. The entry point in Viehhofen is completely new. The zellamseeXpress impresses with free WiFi and jukebox gondolas, a world first. You can use your smartphone to choose favourite songs you would like to hear played over the gondola speakers during your ride. Tow lifts and practice lifts are provided for beginners. For children and beginners, there are modern covered SunKid moving carpets.
