Doppelmayr Reports Strong Financial Results

The Doppelmayr Group today reported positive results for fiscal year 2025-26, representing April 2025 through March 2026. The firm realized 109 ropeway systems and 45 logistics projects across 25 countries with revenue of €1.306 billion (US$1.506 billion). That represents a 9.1 percent increase versus fiscal year 2024-25. Employee headcount rose 5.4 percent to 3,987 FTEs worldwide. Doppelmayr does not publicly release profit figures.

Switzerland, France and Italy together comprised the largest share of revenue at approximately $467 million, with the marquee Campitello–Col Rodella 3S opening in the Dolomites and the first TRI-Line debuting in Hoch-Ybrig, Switzerland. The United States and Canada together formed Doppelmayr’s second largest market with approximately $346 million in revenue. Major projects here included the Explorer Gondola at Big Sky Resort and East Village Gondola at Deer Valley. Doppelmayr’s home market of Austria represented approximately $286 million or 19 percent of revenue. Latin America, Southeast Asia and Central/Eastern Europe each accounted for under five percent while the rest of the world made up 15 percent of revenue. “Our markets once again proved very robust in the business year 2025/26,” noted Thomas Pichler, Managing Director of Doppelmayr Holding SE. “We successfully implemented numerous extraordinary projects extending from Austria and the entire Alpine region to North America and Asia. This broad international positioning provides stability while also opening up new opportunities for further growth.”

The company described current conditions in certain markets as “challenging.” In the United States and Canada, project count is down about 20 percent this calendar year from last year. Doppelmayr remains bullish on the future, however. The 133-year-old company expects to open new country headquarters and manufacturing hubs in Salt Lake City, Utah and Saint-Jérôme, Québec next month. “With its strong market position, innovative technologies, and broad international footprint, the Doppelmayr Group considers itself well equipped for the future,” Doppelmayr said. “In the years ahead, the company will continue to invest strategically in research and development, digitalization, and the further development of its sites and employees.”

Tremblant to Complete Timber Expansion in 2027

Alterra-owned Tremblant today announced a CA$42.5 million investment catering to a broad range of skiers. Expanding the Soleil side of the mountain, Timber will open in two phases – a beginner pod with conveyor for winter 2026-27 followed by eight new trails and a detachable quad for 2027-28. “Timber Summit represents much more than an expansion of our ski terrain,” said Patrice Malo, President and Chief Operating Officer of Station Mont Tremblant. “It reflects our commitment to continually elevating the Tremblant experience and creating new opportunities for skiers and snowboarders of all abilities, today’s families, and generations to come.”

Tremblant first announced this project March 10th, 2020, just five days before the entire North American ski industry shut down for Covid. After a six year pause, work began anew last month with tree clearing on the summit. The beginner portion of the expansion will include a 1.1 acre slope ideal for learning and a covered surface lift. “The gentle terrain and dedicated infrastructure will be designed to support progression from guests’ very first turns through the early stages of their skiing journey,” noted Tremblant. On weekends and peak periods, guests will access the zone from the village via the existing Casino Express Gondola.

Higher up on the mountain, crews are working to clear one new trail on the North side of Timber and seven trails on the Soleil side. These will total 62 acres and include 100 percent snowmaking coverage. The Timber Express high speed quad will ascend 1,388 vertical feet and transport 2,400 skiers per hour from the Soleil base, where a new Club Med is also under development. The new lift will become a modern alternative to the aging Soleil Express and span more than a mile (5,900 feet) with 125 chairs. A manufacturer hasn’t yet been selected.

Tremblant’s news comes during a busy period of expansion for Canadian ski areas. At least 16 resorts plan to build new lifts in 2026 and 2027 across British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia.
