About

Tongyeong Cable Car installed on Mireuksan Mountain in Tongyeong is 1,975 meters long, and a bi-cable automatic circulation gondola system was installed using the latest Swiss technology. At an average speed of 4 meters per second, it takes about 9 minutes to reach the upper station, circulating a total of 48 gondolas that consist of 47 passenger gondolas and 1 cargo gondola. The cable car implemented an eco-friendly design and has only one intermediate support with the aim of protecting the environment while providing a comfortable ride for passengers. In addition, the 8-person gondolas operate non-stop, allowing passengers to board without delay and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Korea’s beautiful ocean in privacy with their loved ones. They also have a pet-friendly cable car, allowing visitors to ride with their pet.
