Doppelstockbahn Samnaun

The Doppelstockbahn Samnaun is a two-level aerial lift that connects the valley with the mountain area. It uses large cabins with two decks to carry many passengers at the same time.

The system was built in 1995 and was the first of its kind to introduce two-level cabins in aerial lift technology. This innovation changed how mountain lifts handle large numbers of visitors.

The aerial lift connects Swiss and Austrian ski areas, making it easy for winter sports enthusiasts to cross the border. It has become an important meeting point for people from both countries.

The ride is easy to access and requires no special skills or preparation. It is advisable to wear comfortable clothes, especially since the weather at the top of the mountain can be cool.

The distinctive feature of this aerial lift is its double deck design, which sets it apart from others. Many visitors do not realize that the two levels represent a forward-thinking approach to mountain transport capacity.
