Auction of old Gondola Cabins – buy a piece of Courchevel history!

Update: The Chenus gondolas went for around €2700 to €3000 each in the auction (the second one sold made only €1900 and a pink one nearly €4500). The newer Ariondaz ones sold at about the €2000 price point.

There is a charity auction of the old Chenus and Ariondaz gondola cabins to be held on Saturday 24 May 2025 (Chenus gondola is being replaced this Summer).

The auction is online or in person at the Alpinium in Le Praz and there are 160 cabins for sale.

After years of transporting skiers, these iconic cabins are auctioned for a second life off the slopes.

95 Chenus cabins (SIGMA / POMA manufacturer, 1994).

65 cabins from Ariondaz (CWA manufacturer, 2001).

All profits from this sale will be donated to charities working in social and environmental protection. A great opportunity to acquire an object full of history while supporting essential causes.

On the morning of the sale on Saturday 24 May 2025 from 10:00 to 12:00 a selection of the cabins will be available for viewing.

The sale will start at 14:00.

All cabins need to be collected on Saturday 7 June 2025 between 09:30 and 15:00.
