Tips

February 26, 2020

Antonio Zayas, the only ski lift that has been operating in Sierra Nevada for more than 25 years, is, next to the Laguna ski lift, the ski lift that transports skiers and snowboarders to the highest ski levels of the station, where appropriate, up to 3,250 meters of altitude, very close to the summit of Veleta peak.
The Zayas ski lift, which takes its name from one of the most influential characters in Sierra Nevada as director of the hostel, traces a slope of 350 meters at a speed of 3.5 meters per second with a transport capacity (two people per 'hanger ') of 1,440 people per hour.
The Zayas is a ski lift that opens up to the expert users of Sierra Nevada the best ski areas of the station, the 'blade' of the Veleta with tracks such as the Cordon, Panoramic or Tube of the Veleta, and direct access to the areas of Cauchiles, Borreguiles and Laguna.
