For the past few years there has been talk of a new gondola “Panoramabahn Geols” to be built at Spieljoch. It will link the Spieljoch ski area to the Hochfügen road to allow for easier access, by bus, to Hochfügen. There have been several delays to the start of building, but, last week I came across an article that said that work has finally started!
We went up on Saturday to have a look around, figure out where it will be and see how far they have got. The most obvious work was at the base station, which is near “Talegg” on the Hochfügen road.
They have also been removing trees along the route…
Erecting temporary pylons…
And, putting pegs in the ground at the top station…
I guess this will become one of our regular walks this summer, so that we can watch the progress and see how it’s getting on.
