There will be reduction in travel time to just fifteen minutes between the two hill cities in Uttarakhand. This system is a trailblazer in the design of cable tramways, featuring the first 10-seater cabins in India.
With their enclosed rooms, complete ventilation, glass windows, and automatic doors for optimal convenience, these cabins are a marvel of contemporary engineering.
Cabins capable of accommodating 1,300 passengers per hour per direction have never been scheduled before.
All weather conditions will be accommodated for the cable tramway, greatly reducing traffic in the area, especially during the busiest holiday seasons for both locals and visitors.
In order to strengthen the local economies of Dehradun and Mussoorie, the project also intends to combine infrastructure development, including accommodation, food & beverage, and retail establishments.
India is home to many cable tramways that provide breathtaking views of deep valleys, mountain ranges, verdant landscapes, and clouds that appear to be within grasp. The captivating charm of touring a region via ropeway is among the best ways to discover and navigate it.
Here are four of the most breathtaking mountain ropeways in the nation, with expansive views:
Ropeway Auli (Uttarakhand)
With a 4 km travel time in approximately 20 minutes, the Auli ropeway in Uttarakhand is the longest cable car in India and the second-longest in all of Asia. It offers travelers breathtaking views of the Nanda Devi snow peaks and the Himalayas as it connects Joshimath and Auli.
Pathankot Skyview (Jammu & Kashmir)
The Gondola Ride at Skyview Patnitop is one of India’s most stunning mountain cable tramways. At 65 meters, this is one of the highest ropeways in the nation. It takes just 12 minutes to reach from Sanget to Patnitop.
Ropeway in Darjeeling, West Bengal
From Singamari to Singla Bazaar, the Darjeeling Ropeway—also called the Rangeet Valley Cable Car—offers an exciting journey for tourists. These cable cars offer an aerial perspective of tea gardens, mountain ridges, winding rivers, and tumbling waterfalls from their 7000-foot altitude.
Ropeway Gangtok (Sikkim)
Awe-inspiring views of Mt. Kanchenjunga and the surrounding valleys are promised by the Gangtok Ropeway. Elevated to a height of 3500 meters, the Gangtok cable tramway takes 15 to 20 minutes to travel and offers views of tea gardens, breathtaking mountains, and lush valley sceneries.
