Accessible Access to the Slopes for Monoskiers - Lifttrax SP makes it possible.

More and more ski resorts are investing in accessible infrastructure. However, one important area is often overlooked: the transition from the gondola top station directly onto the ski slope – especially for mono skiers. This is exactly where LiftTrax SP Glide Mats from Skitrax provide a simple and highly effective solution.

At the Kaunertal Glacier Ski Resort (Austria), a dedicated glide track approximately 40 cm wide has already been installed using LiftTrax SP mats. This allows mono skiers to glide independently and safely from the gondola exit directly onto the ski slope without the need to transfer or rely on additional assistance. Other ski resorts—including Axamer Lizum (AUT), Ochsenkopf (GER), and many more—use the Lifttrax SP at the exits of their mountain railways.

The modular LiftTrax SP Glide Mats are installed in the gondola exit area and continue all the way to the ski slope, creating a continuous glide path for mono skis.

Key Benefits

Inclusive winter sports are becoming increasingly important around the world. Today, mono skiers expect not only modern lift systems but also convenient and safe access to the slopes. Purpose-built exit areas can make a significant difference, and a dedicated glide track is the perfect complement to existing accessibility measures.

With LiftTrax SP Glide Mats, Skitrax once again demonstrates how small innovations can have a major impact. The modular glide track not only improves comfort but also enables people with disabilities to enjoy winter sports with greater independence and confidence.

Accessibility often begins with just a few metres – and those few metres can make all the difference.
