Comfortable, fast and safe: the lifts are the ideal solution to reach a certain height above sea level without worries. Some start directly from South Tyrol's main towns, others from easily accessible valley stations. Once at the top, there are various activities for every taste to choose from. Alpine huts serving fine delicacies with panoramic views. Adventurous via ferratas. Entertaining family parks. Worthwhile hikes. Or bike trails leading back down into the valley. Just a few clicks and you will receive all the information you need for your safe vacation. We look forward to seeing you!
At the Family-Funpark at the Speikboden Ski Area, the adventure park for kids in the valley station, the little ones will have a lot of fun! Whether skiing, tobogganing, or a speedy ride on the bobsled - the easy and clearly arranged slope offers plenty of space to romp around!
The two conveyor belts "Leni" and "Toni" take care of the ascent.
Leo Demetz is a chairlift in the zone Piz on the sunny side of the Seiser Alm. You can also measure your speed on the speedtrap.
The majestic Hochjochferner glacier lies along the border between Austria and Italy. The glacier cable car overcomes more than a thousand metres in altitude in six minutes and takes guests from Maso Corto up to 3,212 metres. Every year from September to May, winter sports enthusiasts hit the slopes at this world class 185-acre natural park. The glacier is equally suited to beginners and experienced skiers, as well as families. The real crowd pleaser is especially the 8 km long Schmuggler downhill slope leading into the valley.
The first Wallpach chairlift was inaugurated in 1981. Having faithfully carried countless skiers to the mountain station at Pivigna over the course of many years, in the summer of 2018 it retired – and in December that same year, a state-of-the-art new system opened: a detachable six-seater chairlift with a total length of some 900 m and a transport capacity of 2,200 passengers per hour.
Please note that this chairlift is not accessible to pedestrians.
The chairlift with four seats brings pedestrians and skiers up to 3.212m to the mountain station of the glacier cable car.

A "Tottomandl" describes in the South Tyrolean dialect an Alpine salamander. In the ski area Speikboden, the "Tottomandl" is impressive 220 meters long and its centerpiece is a 75-centimeter-wide conveyor belt that comfortably and safely negotiates a height difference of 43 meters.
A Plexiglas roof construction not only protects it from the elements, but really does help the entire conveyance system look like an oversized salamander. The conveyor belt can transport up to 1,500 people in an hour.
In the summer months of 2020, part of the conveyor was tunneled under to provide a better connection to the mountain station of the Speikboden cable car. From now on, an approximately 50m wide runway will lead over the conveyor belt. It certainly won't be boring underground, because there are plenty of native animals to admire on the illuminated track.
