The valley station of the cable car is located on the edge of the mountain village of Marciana. From here you can reach Monte Capanne. The railway was built in the sixties and renovated in 2005. By train you can reach the summit of Monte Capanne in about 18 minutes, from where you can enjoy the unique panorama.
It is not an ordinary cable car with cabins, as the name "Cabinova" falsely suggests. You are in a waist-high basket that holds a maximum of two people. This has the advantage of a magnificent all-round view. And every time someone gets in, the journey leaves and then accelerates again. It always rocks a bit.
Attention: The cable car has a lunch break!
The opening hours of the cable car are the following daily:
in the morning from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm (last departure from the summit at 1:00 pm), in the afternoon from 2:20 pm to 5:00 pm (last departure from the summit at 5:30 pm).

You should be a little free from giddiness if you want to take the cable car.

A ride on the cable car is highly recommended. Although you can't really call them cabins. They are more like baskets for a maximum of 2 people....
