Höllwieslift, Ski lift in Söllereck, Oberstdorf, Germany
The Höllwieslift is a drag lift on the eastern side of Söllereck connecting elevations between roughly 800 and 1300 meters. The system provides access to different ski runs ranging from easy to challenging slopes.
This drag lift system was built in 1962 and initially moved fewer visitors per hour than modern standards require. The facility changed ownership and has remained a core part of the ski area since then.
The area around the lift is a meeting place for families and beginners trying winter sports for the first time. People use the easier slopes here for learning and practicing together.
Visitors should arrive with warm gear and winter-appropriate shoes since operations depend on cold weather conditions. The different difficulty levels allow you to choose a route that matches your skill.
The facility will soon be replaced by a modern two-section system with larger cabins, representing a significant upgrade for the ski area. This renewal shows how the mountain continues to adapt to current visitor numbers and needs.
