Flickr: Into the clouds
One of the two cable cars descends into the clouds on its way back to the lower cable station. The cable cars cannot operate independently as they counterbalance each other. As one goes up, the other comes down. Capable of carrying 65 people at a time, the cable cars travel at a maximum speed of 10 metres per second. Taking visitors 704m, from the Lower Cable Station at 363m above sea level, to the Upper Cable Station, at 1 067m above sea level.
