WHAT IS BEING BUILT?
A LOT IS HAPPENING IN SUMMER 2025
NEW CABLE CAR CONSTRUCTION
The existing Einhornbahn II and Loischkopfbahn chairlifts will be dismantled and replaced by a state-of-the-art 10-seater single-cable gondola lift. The valley station of the new lift is on the Tschengla, the mountain station just below the Loischkopf summit. There will be an exit point halfway up at the mountain station of the Einhornbahn II (whip off, start of the Tschengla Unchained route, Tschäck the Ripper, Tschack Norris, Tschäckie Tschan). When planning the lift, special attention was paid to the needs of mountain bikers.

RENOVATION OF BIKE TRAILS
Last summer we already made many adjustments to the trails in the lower section. In the 2025 season, further optimizations and reconstruction work will be carried out to modernize the trails and make them even more attractive. This reconstruction work will focus primarily on the Tschengla Unchained (ST-01) and Tschäck the Ripper (ST-02) trails and the bike park finish area. We are already looking forward to introducing you to the new sections and sections!
