New Porté chairlift, Formiguères telemix and a lake in Cambre d'Aze

Published: Feb 28, 2022

The Department of Pyrénées-Orientales has commercially merged the three resorts with a local public company (SPL) called "Trio Pyrénées".

Three large projects in three ski areas in the French Pyrenees Orientales of Les Neiges Catalanes: Formiguères, Porté Puymorens and Cambre d'Aze.

The three with a total amount of 8.5 million euros from the Department of Pyrénées-Orientales, which owns 70% of the capital of the three domains. This is the budget that has been reserved while waiting to know the proposals that are submitted to the respective tenders.

Trio Pyrenees

The item is part of a much larger investment plan -30 million in the coming years- that will be possible after the deliberative assembly of the French department of Pyrénées-Orientales, a decentralized territorial unit located in the south of the Occitan region, has decided bet on the commercial union -which is not physical because it is impossible- of Formiguères, Porté Puymorens and Cambre d'Aze with the creation of a local public company (SPL) called "Trio Pyrénées".

Cambre d'Aze.

Thanks to this union, Formigueres will begin to build the first telemix (gondola lift + chairlift) in the Pyrenees at the end of the season, as well as a ski lift, and Porté Puymorens will do the same to replace the La Mine gondola lift, the oldest in the resort.

In the third ski areain this trio, Cambre d'Aze, the first and most immediate efforts will go to a lake in the Eyne to supply snow cannons during the ski season. In summer, it will be a sheet of water for holidayers and a reserve for farmers. The installation of a ski lift is also on the table.

On a commercial level, the commercial merger of the three resorts will translate, starting next winter, into a single Ski Pass that will allow you to ski Formiguères, Porté-Puymorens and Cambre d'Aze indistinctly.

The objective of the Department of Pyrénées-Orientales is to modernize its resorts and transform them into "four-season resorts", bearing in mind that in the future ski seasons are likely to be shorter and snow cover more uncertain.

“Today, it is imperative to take a step forward and position our resorts as a summer destination as well. It is at this price that we will be able to sustain this local economy,” says Vincent Daniel, director of the Formiguères resort, speaking to France Blue.

The merger, analyzed by Éric Charre, director of Porté Puymorens, responds to the fact that "each structure was too small to have certain technical skills. By pooling our resources, we will be able to create, for example, a maintenance team worthy of a large resort, which will be able to intervene in the three areas”, which will maintain their own differential idiosyncrasy.
