Dear Guest,<\/p>\n
For the Buffaure hiking area, summer 2026 will be a season of great change: the Buffaure-Col de Valvacin chairlift, built in 1997, will be replaced with a modern 10-passenger gondola lift<\/strong>, featuring more efficient performance and cutting-edge technology. Due to this replacement work, which stems from the need to perfect the tourist offer<\/strong> by improving user comfort and safety, the opening period of the Pozza-Buffaure gondola lift will be reduced<\/strong> compared to normal summer seasons: from June 20th to August 30th, 2026<\/strong>. <\/p>\n This major investment will improve high-altitude mobility<\/strong>, allowing all guests of this beautiful area at 2,000 meters to reach the Col de Valvacin panoramic viewpoint (2,354 meters) in the shortest possible time. The decision is mainly due to the needs of the winter season, where numbers require a lift with higher performance and shorter ascent times. To meet these needs, the lift will increase its hourly capacity from 1,800 p\/h to 2,600 p\/h<\/strong>, significantly reducing waiting times. Travel times will also be reduced<\/strong> from the current 7’15” minutes to 3’49” minutes, encouraging reuse of this lift. <\/p>\n The new lift, designed to reduce visual impact on the environment and the surrounding landscape, will feature an underground valley station<\/strong> and will be integrated into its surroundings, paying special attention to the scenic integration of the work and preserving the beauty of the area. The analysis of spaces, local morphology, and lastly, the management needs of the ski area has also led to the choice of concentrating a series of functions at the valley station while keeping the mountain station building to a minimum. <\/p>\n Another important aspect concerns the lift line, which will be modified compared to the current one. The new configuration aims to achieve a safer and more functional flow management<\/strong>, reducing wind exposure and therefore the likelihood of lift closures, while adapting the lift capacity to current flows.<\/p>\n This renovation project will thus improve the appeal of the lift and user management, also leading to an architectural and landscape redevelopment of the area<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Due to this high-altitude construction site, Buffaure’s summer offer will be reduced this season<\/strong>. It will not be possible to discover our beautiful thematic trails or play with the fun games that usually brighten the basin. However, it will be possible to take part in the weekly activities offered by Malga Jumela<\/strong>, which you can find described HERE<\/a>. <\/p>\n As for hiking<\/strong>, it will be possible to reach the Buffaure basin via the gondola lift from Pozza di Fassa for peaceful high-altitude walks and delicious breaks at the mountain huts. However, the area will be almost entirely affected by the construction site, and there will be no way to reach Col de Valvacin comfortably by lift. We therefore recommend accessing the panoramic ridges from Alba di Canazei, reaching the Ciampac <\/strong>hiking area. From the highest point of Ciampac, Sella Brunech (2,428 m), you can head towards Col Bel, or hike the Lino Pederiva equipped trail to Passo San Nicol\u00f2, then descend along the picturesque Val San Nicol\u00f2 or return to Alba via Val Contrin. From Sella Brunech, you can also walk along the panoramic ridges that lead to Col de Valvacin, passing through the Sass d\u2019Adam viewpoint. Right along this ridge, which offers a 360-degree view, you will find the curious art installations by Marco Nones that make up “The Seated Path” (Il Sentiero Seduto). <\/p>\n We also recommend discovering the other wonderful hiking areas of Val di Fassa<\/strong>: in addition to Ciampac, the Catinaccio Rosengarten<\/strong> hiking centre is definitely worth a visit, with its wide range of easy walks, panoramic hikes, and family offer, as well as the Col Rodella area<\/strong> at the foot of Sassolungo, and the Belvedere area<\/strong> in Canazei, with its bike park and the Col dei Rossi panoramic viewpoint (2,380 m).<\/p>\n \n For more information or specific requests, you can contact Catinaccio Buffaure S.p.A.
