Gangtok Ropeway is one of the most thrilling and popular tourist attractions in Sikkim. Offering a spectacular bird's eye view of the scenic Gangtok landscape, the ropeway provides an unforgettable aerial experience over the hills and valleys of this beautiful Himalayan town. The cable car shuttles between three terminal stations, allowing passengers to choose to board from any of the three points along the route — from just below the Namgyal Institute of Tibetology all the way up to the Secretariat.
