    Bonjour Michel,

    Juste une question, sait-on pourquoi ce téléphérique a été abandonné, rentabilité, vétusté, sécurité (ce qui revient au même) ou autre…

    J’étais avant hier au Gornergrat, c’est un magnifique endroit.

    Bon week-end.

    Amitiés.

    Rémy

    Exactely, if you remove one cabine after the other, you don´t need a helicopter. This cablecar had a second section which had also the old cabines. It was nearly in den original state. And the view from the Stockhorn was also really nice cause you are in the middle of the mountains up there. Bus as the cablecar was open just fore some weeks in spring nearly no one except de skiers used it.

    Everything is done with helicopter in Zermatt!!! 😉
    Anyway the cabins can reach the station by their own… I mean suspended to the cable, you just have to remove one cabin after the other!

    I wonder how they got both gondolas in the same station.
