Whether in summer, with its lush green meadows, or in winter, under a blanket of snow, Zipline valley offers a unique experience, to be enjoyed with family or friends, whatever the season.

The fascinating history of ziplines

Tyrolean traverses have not always been a tourist attraction. Originally, they were used as a practical means of transport in mountainous regions, particularly in the Tyrol between Austria and Italy. People used them to cross deep valleys or to transport timber and goods. During Alpine conflicts, they also played a military role, facilitating the movement of troops and equipment.

Tyrolean traverses have evolved over time. As early as the 20th century, they became part of the first adventure courses in Italy, and soon became a popular leisure activity. Today, modern facilities such as Zipline valley in Charmey combine advanced technology and thrills in an exceptional natural setting.
