From the winter season 2022/2023, a new covered and thus wind- and weatherproof Magic Carpet will not only delight our young guests and ski beginners.
With a length of 204 meters, the new conveyor is the longest covered Magic Carpet in Austria and thus replaces the previous baby lift in Kühtai with a simple and, above all, safe ascent aid that is also suitable for children from the age of 3.
In addition to the resulting much wider and longer blue practice slope for children and beginner skiers, another new feature is the connection from the exit of the Magic Carpet to the valley station of the HochAlterbahn and the StartBahn.
There will also be a dedicated red access piste to the GaisKogelBahn, so that all skiers coming from the HochAlterBahn can continue to access the GaisKogelBahn valley station directly via pistes No. 2 and No. 3. What is new, however, is that the Kühtai circuit can now be skied in both directions, as the new Magic Carpet now also enables the transition from the GaisKogelBahn valley station to the HochAlterBahn valley station.
