Parnitha Funitel

Parnitha Funitel, Aerial tramway in Acharnes Municipality, Greece.

The Parnitha Funitel is a funitel cableway on Mount Parnitha, running 1,595 metres from the lower station up to the Regency Casino Mont Parnes. It has 24 green cabins: 21 for public use with 20 seats each, 2 VIP cabins with 6 seats, and 1 maintenance cabin. Each cabin hangs from a dark metal suspension arm with multiple wheels gripping the cable.

An original aerial tramway was built in 1972 to carry people up the mountain. It was replaced in 2006 with a modern system that operates with significantly improved technology and capacity.

The funitel provides access to a popular destination for Athenians seeking outdoor recreation and time in nature away from the city. This mountain serves as a green escape near urban areas.

The funitel runs on a 1,595-metre line with an average inclination of 20 degrees, and the trip takes about 5 minutes. Public cabins seat 20 people each, with 21 cabins in public service, 2 reserved for VIP guests and 1 for line maintenance. Service is suspended when wind speeds reach 120 km/h.

The system was designed and built by Doppelmayr Seilbahnen, an Austrian specialist in mountain tramway systems. The design takes into account the specific challenges of the terrain and weather conditions on Parnitha.
