"Snow Paradise Hasliberg – Titlis"
The ski resorts of Hasliberg, in
the Bernese Oberland, with Engelberg-Titlis, and the Melchsee-Frutt ski
area in Central Switzerland are planning to connect their ski slopes.
In connecting these three medium size ski areas, the new “Snow
Paradise Hasliberg – Titlis” will become one of the biggest
ski and snowboard wonderlands found in the Alps. To fulfil this dream,
four companies will have to build eight brand new chairlifts and one
ski tunnel. The final realization of this venture will be completed within
the next seven to ten years.
With a total of 51 lifts and cable
cars, and over 210 kilometres of downhill runs, the new “Snow Paradise
Hasliberg – Titlis” will be one of the biggest ski areas
of the Alps. The following four companies will work together in a joint
venture to bring this project to life:
Aerial Cableways Titlis Rotair, Engelberg
Aerial Cableways Melchsee-Frutt
Hasliberg-Kaeserstatt
Aerial Cableways Meiringen-Hasliberg
The famous Canadian ski resort
planner, Paul Mathews, of Ecosign Mountain Resort Planners Ltd in Whistler,
B.C., Canada, performed an evaluation of the technical feasibility of
this project. The result of this survey predicts total and complete success
for the proposed merger. The cost of connecting these three ski resorts
is estimated at approximately 48 million Swiss Francs to a maximum of
59 million Swiss Francs.
Until March 2004, all interested
parties are invited for a consultation. We will keep you informed about
the steps to come in the future.
