Nebelhorn Lift System

The lift system at Nebelhorn features cutting-edge technology with 6 installations efficiently serving the mountain's diverse terrain. The centrepiece is the ultra-modern Nebelhornbahn, a 10-person LEITNER bicable gondola system that was completely renovated for the 2021/22 season. This sophisticated lift operates in two continuous sections, transporting skiers from the base station at 828 metres through the Höfatsblick middle station at 1,274 metres to the mountain station at 1,927 metres. The revolutionary bicable technology provides a transport capacity of 1,200 passengers per hour, eliminating lengthy queues whilst offering panoramic views through Pininfarina-designed Symphony cabins. A final Nebelhorn-Gipfelbahn cable car continues to the summit at 2,224 metres, complemented by two chairlifts and surface lifts serving additional terrain around the Höfatsblick station.

Season Info

Nebelhorn operates one of Germany's longest ski seasons, typically running from mid-December through early May with exceptional snow reliability throughout. The resort benefits from its position as the Allgäu's highest skiing destination, receiving substantial natural snowfall that combines with comprehensive artificial snowmaking across 11 kilometres of pistes. Peak conditions occur from January through March, when the predominantly north-facing slopes maintain excellent powder quality and firm piste surfaces. The resort's high altitude and strategic aspect ensure consistent skiing well into spring, often providing the region's last available skiing when lower resorts have closed. Clear weather days offer extraordinary visibility across the Alpine panorama, whilst the elevated position creates a unique microclimate that preserves snow quality longer than surrounding areas.
