New in Chatel for Ski Season 2012 September 5th, 2011
This coming winter season we will have a brand new lift at Pre-La-Joux, the old Rochassons 2 man lift is at this very moment been removed and a brand new 6 man express lift will be installed in its place. Once this is complete all the main lifts at Pre-La-Joux will be the new express detachable type.
In addition to the new lift the final stage of the 4 year project to equip all the pistes at Pre-La-Joux with snow cannons will also be finished in the next few months. This has been a massive project with the creation of a huge new lake near the top of the mountain to feed all the new cannons. This investment has already been very useful last season when all the pistes survived until the end of the season despite the poor snowfall in Europe last winter.
These investments ensure Chatel continues to provide world class skiing facilities in the Pre-La-Joux area, a highlight of the Portes du Soleil domain.
