CD8C Masto Express

Finland’s first ever 8-seater chairlift has an impressive capacity of up to 4,000 people per hour and is being built by LEITNER at the Ruka resort. This resort, which is known especially for Nordic skiing also offers the country’s longest skiing season and, despite not varying greatly in altitude, boasts a surprisingly diverse range of possibilities for skiers, snowboarders, and freestylers. The beginning of the season will see the launch of the new “Masto Express” 8-seater chairlift, which is designed for yearround operation and includes bicycle transport. This technically sophisticated ropeway features vibration dampers and EVO Premium chairs. It was built in a record five months. To keep the design as compact as possible, LEITNER deployed a combined system involving two integrated parking lines in the bottom station garage.
