History

Vogel Ski Resort Ski resort Vogel Bohinj Facts and figures

First cargo funifor started operating in 1961, but it was broken down because of the lightning strike. In 1964 the passenger funifor was built with capacity of 15 passengers. In the fall of 1964 also the first surface lift Križ started operating. In the following 3 years new chairlifts were built and in the 1970s they began to build the new Ski Hotel and other gastronomy services. The latest modernisation of the ski resort happened in 2000s, when the funifor was replaced by the new Poma's (2001) and two fourchairs were delivered by Doppelmayr in 2007.
