New 10-Seater Gondola Lift in Berwang
The Berwang cable car company is constructing Section II of the Obere Karbahn. After the continuation of the project, originally started in 2019, was repeatedly delayed due to COVID restrictions and the early construction of the Thanellerbahn in 2020, the long-awaited go-ahead for Section II has finally been given. This new section will replace the old Thanellerkar T-bar lift. Completion and commissioning are scheduled for December 2025.
The construction will not only provide greater comfort for guests but will also extend the existing slopes, as the new top station will sit 140 meters higher than the end of the former T-bar lift. The current top station of Section I of the Obere Karbahn will then serve as a mid-station.
The first avalanche barriers in the ridge area, as well as the foundation work and excavation for the top station, will begin this summer. In summer 2025, the remaining avalanche protection work, the foundations for the top station, slope construction including the snowmaking system, and the installation of the cable car will follow.
