TRIESTE - A ski link was opened today in the Eastern Alps between Sella Nevea and Bovec, the first from Italy to Slovenia.

The Funifor Canin-Kanin cable car, which has been awaited for 40 years, connects the Sella Nevea district in Italy with Bovec in Slovenia.

The car offers ski-lovers 35 kilometres of slopes, at a cost of 28 euros for a single ski pass.

The one and a half kilometres from the Gilberti station to Sella Golovec takes 4 minutes, at a height of 2,133 metres, with a maximum capacity of 200 skiers at any one time. Manuela di Centa and Gustavo Thoeni took part in the opening ceremony, along with Austrian Christian Mayer and Slovenias Jure Kosir and President of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region, Renzo Tondo.

The cable car cost just under 17 million euros, including the structure and connected infrastructures, and was constructed by Austrian company Doppelmayr. (ANSAmed).
