If you want to experience something really special on the Belalp, the Hohstock ski lift and its legendary ski tunnel are recommended.

Opened in 1982, the Hohstock ski lift, which changes direction twice, is a highlight in itself - it is the last of its kind in Switzerland. Starting from Hohbiel at 2,654 m, the uniquely designed T-bar lift winds its way up a steep slope after a left turn and ends after another change of direction to the right at 3,113 m above sea level, just below the summit of the imposing three-thousand-metre Hohstock (3,226 m above sea level). The construction of the ski lift with its changes of direction and the way the rope is guided is considered a masterpiece by experts. But it is not only the experts who talk about the Hohstock lift with awe - skiers and snowboarders are also thrilled and at the same time always a little relieved when they have completed the ride.

The Hohstock is so remarkable that the largest British ski magazine InTheSnow has included it in the round of six ski lifts worldwide that you must not miss. This video feature from Seilbahn TV also highlights the special features of the Hohstock.
