"Once again this year the lift companies are investing in snow making facilities." said Katharina Szücs in charge of media relations for the region, "But it's also important to build of modern lifts so more comfortable and warm gondolas and cable cars are a given.
The local Kitzbühel Ski Area slopes lead developments with a new 6 -seater chairlift Resterhöhe with canopy and seat heating - replacing the old chairlift Resterhöhe and the T-bar lift Moseralm.
The famed Streif downhill piste is being extended and pistes at Maierlbahn improved. The Hahnenkammbahn is getting heated seats and new trail groomers have been purchased.
There's more snowmaking for St Johann, while Fieberbrunn gets a new 10 seater gondola "Reckmoos Nord" again with heated seats
Finally Saalbach Hinterglemm is installing a new eight seat-chairlift - Reiterkogelbahn-Ost and there's a new eight passenger cabin gondola too, the Kabinenbahn Bernkogelbahn.
