Accommodation 
The new 6-seater chairlift Balme replaces the 4-seater chairlift Col de Balme. The new lift significantly shortens the ride time and also increases the transport capacity. As part of the reconstruction, the slope routing and snowmaking systems in this sector have also been improved. Another important enhancement is the effective usability for pedestrians and summer operations.
