Gangtok – Cable Ride
This is a kilometer of zig-zag thrill that starts from Deorali and takes the visitors to Tashiling. Offering a bird’s eye view of Gangtok, it is one of the most famous things to do in Gangtok city and top-rated among Gangtok tourist attractions. It is a double-cable zig back ropeway, in which each cable car can carry up to 24 passengers only. There are no seats in the cable car, so you need to stand. The 1 km long ride (2 km to and fro) has three stations – the first station is at Deorali near Institute of Tibetology; the next station is Namnang; and the topmost station is in Tashiling, close to the Secretariat.
