From 14 September closed on weekdays for maintenance; open only on Saturdays and Sundays until October. The lift status box on the same page, read on 23 September, shows only the Cavaliere-Monte Botte Donato gondola as open, with the chairlift and ski lift closed.
Official sources disagree: September hours: the notice of 14 September gives 10:00-18:00, the season box on the same page 10:00-17:45.
