Skyvall is a new 30m € gondola linking Loudenvielle in the Vallee du Louron to the mountain village at Peyragudes - opening July 2019.

From this summer, the new €10m gondola will allow hikers and bikers to go to Station de Peyragudes direct from the valley floor. The departure station is located north of Loudenvielle near the superb Balnéa spa with the arrival station at the base of the ski area which in summer becomes a vast multi-activity play area.
With 32 cabins for 10 people, the 3km lift will ascend 650m and will make it simpler for holidaymakers staying in Loudenvielle, but also for those staying at Peyresourde to enjoy everything on offer in the valley, including the cinema, market and of course the Balnea spa.
The new lift is expected to result in a sharp reduction in car traffic on the Peyresourde pass road up to the ski area and the resort has calculated it will significantly reduce CO2 emissions in the valley (estimated reduction to 274 tonnes of CO2 or 89 072 car trips / year less.
