Lift Upgrades in the Zillertal Arena

J2SkiNews posted Oct-2022



A new 8-seater chairlift will open this winter in the Zillertal Arena this winter as part of an ongoing run of upgrades.

The Zillertal Arena is the largest ski area around the Zillertal valley in Austria with just over 160 kilometres (100 miles) of piste with 50 lifts and a combined uplift capacity of 80,000 people every hour.

The new Kapauns 8-seater chairlift will make it quicker and easier to access the Gerlos ski area from the slopes near Zell am Ziller.

The lift replaces an old double chairlift but takes a newly extended route for greater vertical ascent in a shorter time and is equipped with weather protection hoods and heated seats.

It's the latest in a string of upgrades which will also see the Krimml X-Press renewed ahead of winter 23/24.
