Tigignas
is the main transfer station for all the skiing
pistes of the Savognin ski resort.
At Tigignas there is the top station of the main
chairlift Savognin - Tigignas. From there you
can take the second chairlift up to Somtgant and
Piz Martegnaz, or you can take the new snow bus
to Radons, or you can rest and have a meal at
the restaurant. The problem is that the end station
of the chairlift Savognin - Tignisas is located
about 10 meters above these three equipments and
until december 2001 you were obliged to use a
long staircase which is a little bit difficult
when you have to carry all your skiing equiment!
On September 11, 2001, Niederberger received the
order to build an inclined elevator between the
top station of the chairlift Savognin-Tigignas
and the restaurant to avoid the obligation to
use the staircase.
The official acceptance of the new inclined elevatod
was on December 13, since December 14 it is operational.
