The second link of the new €45 million Le Valléen lift – known as the ‘L’Alpin’ - is the replacement of the old gondola linking Saint-Gervais to Le Bettex.

The ten-seater cabins will take skiers and snowboarders from the base station at 807m to the top station at 1404m, for a total uplift of 597m.

Travelling at 6 metres/second, it will have an uplift capacity of 2,800 people per hour, compared with 1,800 previously.

The new lift will be made by Poma and is due to open on 15 December and will make the return trip from the Saint-Gervais side of the large ski area that little bit faster.
