Ski-swims Gaißau-Hintersee: Application for demolition threatens Wintry fun!

Salzburg, Österreich - The future of the ski swing Gaißau-Hintersee in Salzburg is on the brink. As reported vienna.at, the application for a termination of the lifts was submitted to the state of Salzburg. This step comes after an unsuccessful search for investment partners to procure the 40 million euros required for the renewal of the systems.

The ski swing comprises three armchairs, four drag lifts and a baby lift that are at a height of between 750 and 1,500 meters. The lift operation has been discontinued for several winters, which is partly due to a lack of snow -making systems. The office of the Salzburg Governor Deputy Stefan Schnöll (ÖVP) confirmed that the termination application was received. However, an official decision from the state authorities is still pending.

Details on the background of the abortion application have not yet been made public. However, it is clear that the lack of investments in the infrastructure have contributed a large part. The owners, who consist of three companies and a private individual, are faced with the challenge of no longer finding the durable financial resources for comprehensive modernization, which continues to drive the closure. As SALZBURG.ORF.AT, the application concerns the existing infrastructure of the ski swing.

The ski area -related event is not to be viewed in isolation. Many Austrian ski areas invest in the renewal and expansion of their facilities. In accordance with Skigebieten.info, numerous regions show a positive development by introducing new lifts and modern snow -making systems. In comparison, the Gaißau-Hintersee Ski-Laucel remains behind these progress and thus becomes a symbol of the challenges in front of which smaller ski areas are facing.
