New cable car at Saanersloch
The new state-of-the-art Saanersloch cable car is now up and running. Not only does it transport visitors in greater comfort to the ski area and up into the airy heights, but it is also a world first. The glass panoramic roof construction is the first of its kind anywhere. Now you can get to the ski slopes even quicker and more conveniently, and in greater comfort too, thanks to D-Line.

New red run slope
Since the winter season 2017/2018, the Glacier 3000 ski area will have a new red run. The Red Run begins at the Scex Rouge mountain top station, passes under the Oldenhorn and below the Cabane middle station, to where it then joins the existing Martisberg Run.
Thanks to the new Red Run, Glacier 3000 guests can enjoy an 8 km run from 3000 down to 1300 meters.
