Herzogstand Cable Car, Aerial tramway in Walchensee, Germany.
The Herzogstand Cable Car rises from Walchensee village at 800 meters to Fahrenberg mountain, reaching an elevation of 1,600 meters above sea level.
The current cable car system initiated operations in January 1994, replacing an older chair lift that extended across 1,400 meters of mountainous terrain.
Residents and visitors of Walchensee integrate the cable car into their outdoor recreation activities, particularly during winter sports and summer hiking seasons.
The cable car journey takes four minutes each way, operating at speeds of 8 meters per second with cabins that accommodate 30 passengers per trip.
The system incorporates two main support towers measuring 28 and 24 meters high, using a 43-millimeter carrying cable and 21-millimeter hauling cable.
