Hop on our cable car to reach one of the most beautiful alpine pastures in Val Gardena. Once you reach the top station, you will be greeted by a breathtaking 360° panoramic view of the surrounding peaks, including the Geisler mountains, the Stevia and Sella groups, Sassolungo, Molignon, Sciliar and the mountain of Pic.
In summer, scenic hikes begin right from the station, winding through blooming alpine meadows and past peaceful mountain lakes. You will be surrounded by rich flora, including alpine roses, gentians and edelweiss. The area is also ideal for mountain treks and climbing tours.
In winter, you can enjoy a varied network of ski slopes with direct access to the legendary Sellaronda, as well as a downhill run that takes you all the way to Ortisei.
Following detailed planning, the first Col Raiser ascent installation was constructed in 1963 under the direction of Luis Schenk of S. Cristina in Val Gardena. In 1988, the cable cars were outdated and were completely redesigned to create a modern cable railway. The idea to build the summit station underground was formidable, and a positive solution for the environment. This new cable railway with eight-seat cabins was the first of its kind in Europe. According to South Tyrolean law, a general revision must be carried out every 20 years; therefore, the decision was made to rebuild the cable railway in spring 2008. We renovated the cable railway for the last time in spring 2008!
