Sector: Glacier
Because the base-terminal station for the
Dôme Express funicular (54) is located about 200 m (219 yd) away from, and 100 m (328 ft) below, the main
Glacier 3200 sector interchange level, this rail-mounted cabin lift (elevator) provides a link between the two levels.
The lift's upper terminal is located just below
Les Glaciers bar/restaurant complex, and is accessible via a covered walkway from/to the interior of the restaurant; there is also a piste-side entrance/exit at the side of this walkway, facing the upper-terminal station of the
Jandri Express 2 cable car (56).
A single cabin travels externally on an inclined rail; the cabin is glazed at the front, letting in plenty of natural light and giving good views over the lower glacial zone towards the Toura sector.
At the base terminal: stairs lead to/from the underground funicular station below; there is also a piste-level exit/entrance in this stairwell, all on-piste routes from this level link with the
Jandri run heading towards
Toura 2600.
