Achievement of the "Snowmaking 4.0" milestone

Major milestone for "Snowmaking 4.0" achieved!

After another very intensive construction phase in summer 2024, we can now announce that the first major milestones have been reached. The new reservoir at the Pizolhütte with the low-water area has been completed and filling went according to plan. With the further expansion of the pipeline network, the Pizolbahnen now have a closed water circuit from the middle station (Maienberg in Wangs) to the bottom station of the Schwamm chairlift for the first time. The technical equipment of the two pump houses Twärchamm and Obersäss has been installed or adapted. Additional sections of the slopes are now equipped with snowmaking shafts and new snow lances. In particular, sections of the Zanuz piste (steep slope), the Tritt piste (along its entire length) and the piste by the SAC lift can now be covered with artificial snow for the first time. With this project status, efficient technical snowmaking will be possible next winter, which will sustainably improve snow reliability on the Pizol.

The final tests with the system are currently underway and so we are ready for the start of the snow season on the Pizol. We will keep you up to date on the current progress of the snowmaking and the possible start of the season here and on our other channels.
