Rosa Khutor is an all-year ski and recreational area in the Western Caucasus.
The alpine skiing events were held here during the 2014 Winter Olympic Games
in Sochi. Since the Winter Olympics, the area has seen a continuous rise in visitor
numbers. Rosa Khutor is more successful than ever, attracting almost two million
guests a year. This made it necessary to increase capacity. Rosa Khutor has improved
comfort for its guests and reduced waiting times through the addition of
three new detachable ropeways from Doppelmayr. Since 2016, two 8-passenger
gondola lifts and a 6-seater chairlift with bubbles have opened up additional trail
kilometers in Upper Khutor. These installations provide fast, convenient access to
the slopes for the resort’s guests.
The new Doppelmayr lifts are part of a long-term development plan for Rosa
Khutor. They also take quality to a new level for the 10,500 guests who visit the
area on a daily basis.
