The peak of the glacier near Lucerne offers a special sensation: when taking the aerial cable-car to the top, the gondolas start revolving on the 600-meter-long segment beginning in Stand and ending at the mountain station Klein Titlis located at 3,020 meters above sea level.
The installation of this daring project was just another technical pioneering feat in Engelberg. In 1927, the first aerial cableway in the Alps started operating. Then in 1959, Engelberg was the first town to install parallel cable-cars, and in 1989 the first revolving cable-car. the Titlis-Rotair, was approved. During the five-minute ride, the gondolas turn 360° around their axis, giving all passengers the opportunity to marvel at the panorama of the Engelberg Valley, the deep abbysses and the crevasses of the Titlis Glacier.
