Cable car Bachledka
The journey to adventure on the ridge of the Spišská Magura begins right in Bachledova dolina. The modern 10-seater cable car (Bachledka Gondola) is the fastest, most comfortable and safest way to reach the main attractions and slopes of the BACHLEDKA year-round family mountain resort, all year round.
Comfortable Ride and Panoramic Views
The journey to the top has never been easier. The cable car is designed with maximum consideration for the comfort of all groups of visitors:
- Speed and views: The ride to the ridge itself takes under 7 minutes. Even during the journey, passengers are treated to stunning panoramic views of the majestic Belianske Tatry from the cabin.
- 100% wheelchair accessible: the cabins are fully adapted for families with children and visitors with reduced mobility. There's no need to fold up a pushchair or wheelchair before boarding – you can comfortably bring them on board with you.
- Pet-friendly: enjoy the mountains with the whole family. You're welcome to bring your pet along on the cable car without any problem.
