The lifts run from 8.30 a.m. to 4.50 p.m. With a big vertical
difference between town and the highest lift station, it’s a lengthy
process (even without any queues) to reach the top, via a minimum of
four big lifts.

The first two stages, to Trubsee, have two lifts
running in parallel for increased capacity. Other than beginners
heading for Gerschnialp, everyone has to reach Trubsee before they can
start to disperse across the mountain so there can be queues on weekend
mornings and at noon when half-day tickets become available. With a
total capacity of 15,000 people per hour, there’s not usually a weekday
problem. The top cable car, complete with rotating floor, gives
passengers a 360-degree panorama on the way up; the lowest-tech
facilities - nine drag lifts – are mainly in beginner areas,
supplemented by 2 magic carpets. The remaining lifts are an assortment
of chairlifts, from 2-seater upwards. There is just one modern
6-seater, the Jochstock Express.
