Alyeska
Resort Tramway

The Alyeska Resort Aerial Tramway is a seven-minute ride bringing you to a viewing deck which provides breath taking panoramic views of majestic mountains, hanging glaciers, sparkling streams, towering spruce, and an array of wildlife. The observation deck at the 2,300 foot level of Mt. Alyeska is a perfect place to enjoy a relaxed midday picnic or beautiful evening sunset. Telescopes on the Glacier Terminal viewing deck intensify what Conde Nast Traveler magazine rated the best view of any U.S. ski resort. Enjoy hiking, exploring, berry picking, paragliding, and even hike on the Glacier.
The Alyeska Tramway, designed by Von Roll Tramways, Inc. of Switzerland, has a regenerative drive system. AC power is converted to DC, allowing the tram to operate at varied speeds (slow to fast)
In the winter, the Tram is run at full speed. In the summer, the Tram is operated at half speed, allowing ample time to enjoy the natural beauty of Alyeska Resort.
The Tram operates two cars on a counterweight system -- as one car goes up the other car comes down.
