Gipfelbahn Rauris (Gondola)

This modern 10-person gondola is a crucial part of the Rauris ski area, ascending from the middle station of Kreuzboden (approx. 1200m) to the highest point of the ski resort at 2175m (Heimalm). It offers comfortable and fast transport, even on windy days, providing access to the most challenging slopes (e.g., 'Gipfelabfahrt' black run) and breathtaking panoramic views. In summer, it's a popular starting point for high-alpine hikes. Operates typically from early December to Easter for winter, and July to September for summer. Prices vary by season and duration; a day pass is approximately 50-60 EUR.
