    Sunnyside - 6pers. High speed chairlift (detachable) 1/8

    Ski lifts/​ropeways Alta

    High-speed detachable chairlifts start from both base stations, Wildcat Base and Albion Base, and take you into the ski area. At the top of the ski area, there are additional high-speed chairlifts. The two base stations are connected by the Transfer Tow, which can be used in both directions. Short lifts lead to the lodges (accommodations) in the valley, some of which are also used by beginners. The ski school operates a conveyor belt.
