Cable Car Alanya

The Alanya Teleferik refers to the cable car service that connects many of the tourist attractions within the city. Starting from the Damlatas caves and ending at the lower castle district of Ehmedek, this ride gives one a bird’s eye view of Kleopatra beach, Alanya castle, and the beautiful Mediterranean coastline and vegetation below. The Alanya Teleferik is best travelled during sunset.

The Alanya Teleferik was opened in 2017 as a new way to experience oceanic views. The cabins move at a height of 300 metres, spanning a total distance of 900 metres. A total round trip lasts around 10 minutes. The pace of the gondolas is steady, allowing one to take in the views and click photographs. The frequency of the gondolas is high, with each cabin arriving within a span of a minute at maximum. There are 14 gondolas, and each gondola can carry around six people at a time. One can also carry their bikes with them after obtaining prior permission. Although unsuitable for those with acrophobia or any disability, this is a tourist favourite. It’s a quiet, stable journey, carrying around 1130 people every hour.
