Teleférico de Kuelap, Aerial tramway in Amazonas, Peru.

The Teleférico de Kuelap system consists of 26 cable cars covering 4 kilometers between Nuevo Tingo and the archaeological complex at different altitudes.

Launched in March 2017, this transportation system marks the first cable car operation in Peru, connecting modern infrastructure with an ancient Chachapoya settlement.

The cable car route provides access to the pre-Inca fortress of Kuelap, a monumental complex built by the Chachapoya civilization in northern Peru.

Each cabin accommodates 8 passengers, with the system capable of transporting 1,000 visitors per hour during a 20-minute journey over the Tingo River.

The system rises from 2,272 meters at the departure platform to 2,930 meters at the arrival station, crossing valleys and mountain landscapes.

Location: Tingo District

Official opening: March 2, 2017
