The project, designed by architect <strong data-path-to-node="5,0,0" data-index-in-node="200">Peter Pichler</strong>, includes an intermediate station and will culminate in 2027/2028 with a futuristic panoramic mountain hut at 2,120 meters.</p> <p data-path-to-node="5,0,1,0,0"><em data-path-to-node="5,0,1,0,0" data-index-in-node="0">Note: Despite the construction sites, the Petit Pierre hut at Corno d’Aola will remain open throughout the summer, accessible by foot or mountain bike.</em></p> <p data-path-to-node="5,0,1,0,0"><strong data-path-to-node="5,1,0" data-index-in-node="0">Passo Tonale:</strong> Farewell to the chairlift; a new cable car with a capacity of 3,200 people per hour is arriving.
