A two-seater chairlift from 1981 is making way for a 10-person gondola in St. Johann in Tirol - and if you never rode the old Jodlalm double chair, you missed something. Construction is underway now, capacity jumps from a crawl to 2,400 people per hour, and the new gondola runs direct to the Harschbichl summit at 1,603m without a transfer.

Opening planned for winter 2026-27. The chairs from the old lift were sold off - someone's getting a unique garden feature.

St. Johann in Tirol is replacing its 1981 Jodlalm two-seater chairlift with a new 10-person gondola to Harschbichl, opening 2026-27.

Schilthornbahn AG has reported its best visitor numbers on record for the 2025 financial year, with a 21.9% increase over the previous year that surpassed the prior peaks of 2018 and 2019. The result is notable given the Schilthorn summit was closed for construction until mid-March 2025, cutting early-season visitors by 22%.

Timberline Lodge has scrapped its long-planned gondola project and is replacing it with something more skier-focused: two new chairlifts on the lower mountain, plus a new base lodge. The gondola was meant to physically connect Timberline and Summit Pass - acquired back in 2018 - but the resort has decided a lift-based solution better suits its long-term operations. Still needs Forest Service approval before anything gets built.

Timberline Lodge scraps its gondola project and pivots to two new chairlifts and a base lodge on Oregon's Mt Hood lower mountain.

The 2026 Australian ski season opens on Kings Birthday weekend - 6 to 8 June - and the timing couldn't be better.

A natural snowfall event is tracking across the Alps right now, with Perisher forecast to pick up 43.3cm and Thredbo 35.6cm over the next 10 days. Cooler temperatures from the start of June will also get the snow guns running. Not a blockbuster opening - but a potentially solid one. Full breakdown on our site.
