What's Happening?

It's finally arrived! The Ariondaz gondola from Courchevel Moriond (1650) to Bel Air in the heart of the ski area will be in place for 2017/18. The old 6 person cabins will be replaced by smart new 8 seaters, and it’s the first gondola in France to be lit using power from on-board solar panels. It has twice the hourly capacity of the old gondola, reducing peak morning lift queues, and the ride time will be cut from 12 minutes to seven!
