Loen Skylift, Aerial tramway in Stryn, Norway
The Loen Skylift climbs 1,011 meters from sea level to Mount Hoven, offering views of Nordfjord through floor-to-ceiling windows during a five-minute journey.
The construction of this transportation system, completed in 2017, marked the first aerial tramway installation in Norway since the Hangursbanen project in 1963.
The presence of Queen Sonja of Norway at the opening ceremony demonstrated the national significance of this engineering achievement for the Norwegian mountain tourism.
The tramway operates throughout the year with two 45-passenger cabins traveling at seven meters per second, transporting up to 460 passengers every hour.
With an average gradient of 53 degrees and only one supporting tower, this aerial tramway demonstrates advanced engineering solutions for steep mountain transportation.
