    Levi Ski Resort Unveils €15 Million Upgrade for 2024-2025 Season Levi Ski Resort is set to transform the finnish winter experience with a massive €15 million investment for the upcoming 2024-2025 season. The crown jewel of this upgrade is the new Levi Six chairlift on the Northeast Slopes, scheduled for completion by the season's opening on October 4th, 2024, offering skiers and riders enhanced access to the summit from various angles.The G.2 slope is receiving a significant boost with new LED lighting, providing an impressive 800 lux brightness that not only meets TV broadcast standards but also allows for creative effects like simulated northern lights and moving advertisements. This upgrade will particularly benefit the November alpine skiing slalom season openers for both women and men.Levi's commitment to sustainability shines through in the renovations at the Gondola Restaurant, which will transition to geothermal heating using a newly established field of 36 wells, each reaching 235 meters deep. This eco-friendly update aligns with Levi's broader sustainability goals and will significantly enhance the resort's energy efficiency.

This addition will elevate the overall guest experience at the resort.The resort is also investing in cutting-edge technology for ski maintenance, introducing the Wintersteiger Jupiter service machine, which offers automated base grinding, edge sharpening, and waxing for skis and snowboards, ensuring top-notch equipment performance for visitors. Additionally, Levi is upgrading its operational fleet with a new ski bus and two new slope grooming machines to enhance overall resort efficiency. Looking beyond winter, Levi Ski Resort has launched an ambitious project to develop its mountain biking facilities to international standards, aiming to create the Levi Bike Resort. The first phase includes constructing a Skill Park near the Gondola base station and developing the Sunny South flow trail, both set to open this summer.With these comprehensive upgrades and a record amount of stored snow from the previous season, Levi Ski Resort is poised to offer an unparalleled seven-month snow guarantee. CEO Jouni Palosaari emphasizes that these investments, particularly in slope and snowmaking development, are pioneering worldwide, ensuring that Levi remains at the forefront of ski resort innovation and guest satisfaction.

    Val Gardena to Alpe di Siusi Lift Link Back in Play After Court Ruling

    The Val Gardena-Alpe di Siusi lift link isn’t dead after all. A South Tyrol court has overturned Santa Cristina’s rejection of the new Monte Pana-Saltria link on procedural grounds, after the council skipped required public information sessions. Opponents want the missing sessions held and a fresh vote, and nothing has been approved. For now it’s still a bus between the two, but a plan first floated in 2017 is back in the conversation.
