Ropeways on the Seiser Alm

The Seiser Alm has 22 modern ropeways with child safety features: in winter, they are all in operation, eight of them also in summer. All lifts offer great safety and comfort to adventurous outdoor fans and contribute to an unforgettable skiing and mountain experience in the Dolomites.

Of the 22 ropeways:

• three ski lifts – very popular with children and beginners
• six fixed-grip chair lifts (CLF) – ideal for shorter distances
• ten detachable chair lifts (CLD) – easy boarding and alighting
• one Telemix – with maximum comfort for the passenger
• two double cable cars – fast transport with few towers
• conveyor belts (magic carpets) used by ski schools and for short connections.

The Seiser Alm attaches great importance to safety on all ropeways. The facilities are therefore serviced at regular intervals and all lifts are equipped with child safety features.

The Seiser Alm was already considered an ideal skiing area when there were no lifts there, and skiers had to climb up to the high Alpine pasture with their skis. At that time, the first ski races were already being held. In the winter of 1938/39, the first ski lift was finally opened on the Seiser Alm, the toboggan lift “Slittovia Joch-Panorama”. One year later, the first ski lift, the “Medzì-Lift”, was opened and in 1949 the first chair lift, the “Monte Piz”, was opened. The founding of the first ski school offered more and more ski enthusiasts the opportunity to learn how to ski. Even successful skiing legends like Martin Fill, Hans Steger and his wife Paula Wiesinger practised their first turns here. Over time, more than 20 modern mountain ropeways were built.
Since 1966, the Seiser Alm has been connected to the ski area Val Gardena/Gröden. Thanks to the total of 175km of slopes, the ski area is the largest in the Dolomites.
