Hakone Ropeway Luftseilbahn 箱根ロープウェイ
The history of the Hakone Ropeway Luftseilbahn is characterized by innovation and development. The first section of the ropeway was opened in 1959 and led from the Sōunzan station to Ōwakudani. In 2002, the ropeway was replaced by a Funitel, which offers higher transport capacity and comfort. The modernized gondolas from 2026 will ensure durability and safety that will keep passengers waiting in the air. The Hakone Ropeway is not only a significant tourist destination but also a symbol of Japanese engineering and the development of ropeways.
