GD10 Helmjet

GD10 Helmjet

After 40 years of service between Sesto and the Helm ski mountain in the middle of the South Tyrolean Dolomites, the old aerial tramway was finally retired to make way for the new “Helmjet” gondola lift in fall 2020. Helm is a popular destination for families and hikers and offers the pleasures of skiing at 2,050 m in winter. The “Helmjet” takes passengers up its slopes in just under six minutes. The new ropeway offers significantly more comfort, and the chaos and long waiting times at the old stations are now a thing of the past thanks to significantly increased capacity. The resort’s ropeways have recently received and continue to receive a major share of investment. This is now the sixth ropeway which LEITNER has been able to build there in six years. With 58 elegant Luxury Cabins Symphony 10 equipped with bench seats complete with loden upholstery and ski racks in the interior, a comfortable ride is guaranteed. A particularly strong LEITNER DirectDrive powers the 10-passenger gondola lift.
