1/2 Prarion-Plan du Fou
The 8-seater cable car Prarion-Plan du Fou connects Prarion directly with Plan du Fou. This roughly triples the transport capacity on this important connecting axis in the ski area. A special feature of the new 8-seater gondola: it shares the mountain station and the cabins with the 8-seater gondola Siviez.
The 8-seater gondola Prarion-Plan du Fou replaces the rides with the aerial tramway Plan du Fou and the Les Fontaines drag lift on the route from Prarion to Plan du Fou. The old aerial tramway was dismantled, but the drag lift remains in place. A special feature of the new 8-seater gondola Prarion-Plan du Fou is its connection with the 8-seater cable car Siviez. Both lifts share the mountain station at Plan du Fou and also the cabins – making it possible to travel continuously from Prarion via Plan du Fou to Siviez and vice versa. In addition, Nendaz is now connected to the other parts of the 4 Vallées ski area for less advanced skiers without the need for bus rides, thanks to this lift system.
