New cable car to connect Patnitop to Sanget

A new cable car to Patnitop hopes to shed light on the poor man’s Gulmarg!

 

Patnitop is known as the poor man’s Gulmarg. Until recently, the place was frequented by lower middle class families looking for a snowy holiday on a shoe-string budget. Patnitop is different from luxury destinations like Gulmarg not only due to the amount of snowfall but also due to the low-budget hotel and food options that make travelling here reasonable, although not always comfortable.

 

However, now this is about to change with a plush new ropeway that would connect tourists and locals from the lower terminal of the project at Sanget (3 kms from the Chenani-Nashri tunnel) across the beautiful snow-covered deodar trees to the upper terminal at Patnitop.

This outstanding ropeway inaugurated in October connects Sanget to Patnitop. Skyview Patnitop is the largest Indo-French collaboration in mountain infrastructure development and India’s highest ropeway with more than 65 meter ground clearance and the longest span of 849 meters between eight towers.

 

Skyview Patnitop also features Asia’s longest zigzag zipline measuring 580 meters. It starts at an altitude of 1,371 meters and ends at 1,344 meters above sea level through 9 wires & 10 poles, promising a great adrenaline rush!
