According to the decision by the Swiss Federal Council, persons aged 12 and over must wear a mouth-nose protector (MNS) in all rooms accessible to the public. For the cable car sector, this means that wearing a mouth-nose protector or a mask is now mandatory as soon as you enter the entrance area. The mouth-nose protector or a mask must generally be worn outdoors as well (waiting areas, chair lifts, ski lifts etc.). Of course the wearing of a mouth-nose protector is still obligatory in our mountain railways and cable cars on Corvatsch/Furtschellas and Diavolezza/Lagalb.
IMPORTANT NOTE: According to the decision of the canton and the federal governement, all restaurants must close due to the current Covid-19 situation. This also applies to restaurants in ski resorts. The take-away remains permitted in the outdoor area. It is not permitted to provide heated lounges. We are pleased to offer our guests a take-away service at our restaurants. In order to protect our guests and employees, we ask you to observe a few rules.
The following measures apply to the use of the cable cars:

In the Corvatsch/Furtschellas and Diavolezza/Lagalb ski area we follow the safety concept of the Swiss Cableways Association, based on the latest measures of the Federal Council. According to this, from the start of the winter season, the following applies:
As in the whole of Switzerland, the obligation to wear a mask applies to persons over 12 years of age.
The first ski day in the Engadin took place as planned on the Diavolezza, on 17 October. The Corvatsch and Corviglia ski season will start on 28 November. Naturally, this skiing and snowboarding season will be a bit different from the previous years but, nevertheless, we are convinced that everyone will be able to keep safe distances while enjoying the more than 300 km of slopes in our skiing region.
In the event of an official order to suspend all transport services due to a pandemic (lockdown), the selling price of tickets and subscriptions will be refunded in the form of a voucher. This voucher can be redeemed for the purchase of a ticket or subscription. Calculation of the refund (partial refund): purchase price / validity period x duration (number of days) of the official closure.
In that case or if you cannot travel to the Upper Engadin due to health reasons, any refund is excluded. A travel cancellation insurance therefore is strongly recommended.
Neither the Swiss legislator nor the Federal Office of Public Health have plans to restrict the maximum number of people in cable cars or chair lifts. Any ride with our cable cars will take less than 15 minutes; only a contact time longer than 15 minutes leads to an increased risk of infection. In case of large crowds there will be further rides in order to undercut the maximum transport capacity.
In the mountain restaurants the official minimum distances between tables and seating opportunities apply. Furthermore, partitions have been installed in the seating areas, and the self-service areas have been adjusted to the hygiene measures. Mouth-nose-protection is obligatory inside restaurants and bars, as long as you are not seated. Not more than 4 people will be seated at the same table, except families.
