Introduction

Ride a cable car from Mallital to Snow View Point. This enchanting half a mile will be filled with breathtaking aerial views of the eye-shaped Naini Lake, the rolling hills and the distant white peaks of the Himalayas. The aerial ropeway of Nanital has been developed using sophisticated Swiss technology making it one-of-its-kind in the country. A cable car can accommodate up to 12 people, and can speed up to 6 meters per second and slow down to 0.5 meters per second.

There are two trolleys or cable cars, and a one-way trip takes a little over two minutes.
