A brief description of Ba Na Hills cable car
In order to serve the ever-increasing demands of tourists and overcome difficulties of steep mountains, a modern system of the cable car leading to the peak of Ba Na Mountain was successfully constructed.

The Ba Na Cable Car Service Joint-Stock Company has invested 30 million USD in this 86-cabin cable car system, which is able to transport 1,500 passengers per hour. With the length of 16,500 feet (approximately 5,042 kilometers) and a height of more than 4,230 feet (1,291.81meters more or less), the cable car system smoothly runs from the foot of Ba Na Mountain to the peak of the adjoining Vong Nguyet Mountain. Especially, Ba Na Hills’ cable car system is meticulously constructed with international standards, Austrian technology and equipment imported from Germany, Switzerland, and Sweden.
