The ropeway was used in the past for carrying all kind of goods between the Vals valley and Padaun. After the street was constructed in the seventies, the ropeway was useless. In 1978 the ropeway was demolished.

The ropeway station was about 100 meters north east of the path cross. The way before the street was built was also more north of the todays street. The ropeway was close to the way from Padaun to the Vals valley.
