New as of winter 2022/23

With the opening of the new Asitzkogelbahn 8-seater chairlift and the Home of Lässig mobile app, the Skicircus has once again placed emphasis on comfort, improvement and modernisation.

L7 ASITZKOGELBAHN 8ER

Improved comfort and range of pistes in Asitzmulde!

 

After 20 years of operations, the detachable Sportbahn 2000 6-seater chairlift was carefully dismantled last year in order for it to receive a second life in a Polish ski resort in the spirit of sustainability. In its place, following several months of construction, a new gem was constructed that is set to guarantee optimal skiing pleasure: a state-of-the-art detachable 8-seater chairlift by Doppelmayr with a weather protection hood and safety bar, boasting a transport capacity of 3,700 people per hour.

 

Managing director of Leoganger Bergbahnen, Kornel Grundner, is delighted about the quality improvements in the Asitzmulde section and explains, “This final puzzle piece had been on our list for some time, but the coronavirus temporarily interrupted our plans. At the end of January 2022, we finally received the go-ahead and with the start of the season, winter sports enthusiasts can not only look forward to a new and fast state-of-the-art lift, but also to a wider and more comfortable piste in the valley station area. In terms of design, the station building aligns perfectly with the Steinbergbahn, Muldenbahn and Asitzgipfelbahn lifts and also features heated group rooms and lockers. Solar panels on the southside of the valley station provide green power to run the underfloor heating in the service areas, bathrooms and lounge.”

 

True sustainability: the old Sportbahn 2000 6-seater chairlift was carefully dismantled by specialists at the Leogang site and will start making its turns again in the Polish ski resort Master-Ski Tylicz. Thus, after 20 years of excellent service in the Skicircus, the lift is getting a second life in the service of winter sports!
