If you're still on the fence about planning that skiing getaway to the idyllic Hochzillertal resort in Austria's Zillertal Valley, consider this: swag awaits. In the fervent battle to temp vacationers with the most luxurious accommodations, the resort is set to offer a ride to the slopes that is unlike any other.
Gondola maker Leitner Ropeways has teamed up with the bespoke specialists at BMW Individual, to create a uniquely luxurious ski-lift experience. This tricked out "ropeway" offers comforts that come directly from BMW's 7 Series: heated, massaging, Merino leather-clad seats, an Alcantara headliner, a multimedia system controlled via iDrive and even a spot to stow some champagne. Taking a ride through the sky can be thirsty business.
What price decadence? For those that get started early, the resort is offering a package that includes VIP parking, a bottle of bubbly, brunch, the BMW gondola ride (naturally) and more, for 150 euro. If you're more of a late starter you'll have to pony up 190 euro for more or less the same laundry list of luxuries.

The first limousine that can float - exclusively in Hochzillertal
BMW Individual and LEITNER show how luxurious a ropeway can be
An ultra-modern SIGMA Diamond cabin from LEITNER ropeways for relaxed travel up the mountain. The interior is from BMW Individual - consisting of leather seats with a massage function and a multimedia system from the BMW 7-series limousine. Plus exceptional culinary offers at the Hochzillertal ski area with its 181 kilometers of pistes. The "BMW Individual for LEITNER" project presents what is probably the most exclusive way to experience the alpine world in winter.
Brown seats with both a massage function and heating, a cabin headlining of Alcantara Platinum and a leather covered front console and champagne glass and bottle holder fulfill all expectations of luxury. With a multimedia system operated directly from the BMW iDrive button in the middle armrest, a screen and excellent sound quality, the individually designed cabin exceeds all expectations. And shows once again that great comfort is perfectly compatible with functionality.
The exterior is a LEITNER ropeways Sigma Diamond cabin while the interior is furnished in the style and luxury of a BMW 7-series limousine. This collaborative project between the ropeway manufacturer from South Tyrol and the Bavarian automobile manufacturer will be next winter's main attraction in the Hochzillertal ski area.
