Courchevel Telecabins to be Sold Off

Last winter in service for the télécabine de la forêt

Imprint
By Robin Deering, Updated

The colourful telecabins of Le Praz are due to be retired at the end of this winter after 43 years of loyal wobbly & cramped service.

The 77 various coloured bubbles of the Foret lift will be replaced with new telecabins next summer, as part of the seven year multi-million improvement plan for Courchevel.
As such the retired bubbles will be sold off, currently the future sale of the cabins has already attracted nearly 100 potential buyers. However the asking price of €4000 per cabin is said to have deterred a number of buyers already.

How much would you pay for a telecabine and what would you do with yours?
