With the connection of the ski lift facilities to the railway network, the possibility exists for all skiing vacationers to do without their own cars when traveling locally and instead to use the Ski Pustertal Express for their daily transfers within the Kronplatz Ski Area. Anyone who gets off in Perca-Percha can climb right into a cabin of the Plan de Corones-Kronplatz Ried circulating cableway. In addition, the connection with the Ski Train makes it possible to commute every thirty minutes between the two ski areas of the Plan de Corones and the Dolomiti di Sesto-Sextener Dolomiten with the railway connection of the Monte Elmo-Helm valley terminal in Versciaco-Vierschach.
