Hohstocklift (YOC 1982)
With two turns to the highest point in the Belalp ski area at 3,118 m

The 1,518 m long ski lift runs from 2,654 m (Hohbiel) up to just below the sheer cliff of the Hohstock summit at 3,118 m. The facility, which began operation in 1982, was designed to open up two new high-alpine terrain chambers for ski tourism.

The glaciated southern slope of the Sparrhorn forms one ski area. The Unterbäch side, accessed via a 150 m long tunnel, has provided an attractive alternative for demanding skiers since the tunnel opened in 1984.

The terrain above Hohbiel consists entirely of scree and therefore requires a lot of snow to be groomed. To allow the lift to open earlier in winter, a section of the drag lift track is covered in spring. Thanks to snow farming, it can be ensured that the track can be prepared again the following year.
