6-seater chairlift at Lac des Vaux, Verbier, Switzerland
Verbier is located in the canton of Valais and is one of Switzerland’s most renowned winter sports destinations. Thanks to its high altitude, the area is among the first to open the season each year, a fact eagerly anticipated by guests and locals alike.
In summer, the ski slopes turn into a paradise for mountain bikers and hiking enthusiasts.
The new 6-seater chairlift at Lac des Vaux replaces the ageing 2-seater chairlift, offering significantly enhanced comfort, higher transport speed and a more efficient ascent for all guests.
A particular highlight is the compact in-station chair storage system, which allows the chairs to be stored in an orderly manner without the need for additional buildings – a smart and space-saving technical solution.
