Shinhotaka Ropeway : Double Decker Cable Car


The Shin-Hotaka Ropeway is one of Japan's most unique ropeways and it climbs over 1000 meters up the side of the Hotake Mountain Range, which includes Oku-Hotakedake (Japan's third highest peak). The most distinctive feature is its double decker gondola cars, 
the first of their kind in Japan, which offer excellent views of the Okuhida Region.
