===Hopfgarten - Itter - Kelchsau===
In 1946 a Ges.mbH was registered in Hopfgarten to build a chairlift. They succeeded in 1949, building the third, and longest ropeway in [[Tyrol (state)|Tirol]].

In 1985, Bergbahnnen Hopfgarten merged with Schilifte Itter by the ratio 72:28, reflecting the pistes and lifts owned. In 1991, the company acquired Schilifte Kelchsau, and then, in 1997 declared bankruptcy. In 2008, they went into the red again, only to be saved by 200 shareholders. This was indirectly linked to the development of the ''Salvenbahn II'' gondola lift that stretched up to the Hohe Salve.

Kelchsau is only connected by skibus to the rest of the SkiWelt.
