GD10 Hössbahn

GD10 Hössbahn

Situated at the popular World Cup venue in the region of Pyhrn-Priel, Austria’s highest ropeway project to date, the new GD10 Hössbahn, features Diamond EVO cabins with automatic sliding doors, providing more legroom as well as ski quivers on the inside. The bottom station, which features high capacity loading, has a longer layout, making boarding easier, and is integrated into a multifunctional building that includes checkouts, management offices, public bathroom facilities, and a first-aid room. The ropeway is accessed via the second floor, which passengers can reach across a bridge or using escalators, stairs, or an elevator. The top station has been equipped with one of the powerful and most powerful LEITNER DirectDrives, the LD10, on account of the ropeway’s high capacity and the 811 meters it has to ascend. Around 3200 passengers per  hour – 800 more than the old ropeway – are now carried up the mountain in two and a half minutes less time.
