The spectacular new edition to Fethiye is the ‘Skywalk’ cable car that will carry you to the magnificent summit of Babadag Mountain.
This project will make a massive difference to Fethiye and accelerate tourism and bring it to the highest level.
The views from the cable car journey will promise to be breathtaking, from the turquoise waters of Oludeniz to the snowy summits of Babadag Mountain.
From the summit, those seeking a thrilling adrenaline rush can enjoy paragliding down to the beach below. The paragliding center on Babadag Mountain is one of the most famous centers in the world.
The ‘Skywalk’ cable car is set to carry a million people per year and will make a great contribution to tourism. In just one hour 500 passengers can be carried from Ovacik to Babadag and when the current pandemic eases the one million passengers per year can be achieved.
The journey from the bottom to the top of Babadag Mountain is said to take 7 minutes but this will be known for sure when the cable car starts operating. The cable car will start its journey from Ovacik and make its way 1.700 meters where the café will be and where the main paragliding launch pad is located.
This cable car is expected to increase the tourism potential of Fethiye by 30-40 percent.
The magnificent ‘Skywalk’ cable car will have lines that will serve at 1700m-1800m and 1800m-1900m and will also include ski lift lines.
The cable car will also be a great help at reducing motor vehicle traffic up to the summit of Babadag Mountain, and, as people who have travelled up via car, this journey can be pretty hair raising. It is said that this project will not only boost tourism but will also boost rental and property demand massively in Fethiye.
