			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Tahtali Aerial Cableway uniquely combines two classic holiday destinations – the sea and the mountains. The aerial cableway is between Kemer and Tahtalı mountain. Mount Tahtali, at 2,365m above sea level, is situated in an attractive and rapidly growing tourist area and provides the region with a new dimension.</p>
<p>Southern Turkey is on the one hand shaped by the sea, its landscapes and culture, and on the other by the outstanding services and activities it has to offer. With more than 300 days of sunshine a year, it is undoubtedly an attractive holiday destination for guests from Europe the whole year round. And of course, Mount Tahtali is a major landmark of this booming region that is impossible to overlook!</p>
<p><span id="more-148"></span>Mount Tahtali lies at the heart of the Antalya tourist region with several hundred-thousand hotel beds conveniently found in close proximity, approximately a third of which are in 5-star hotel establishments. The possibilities and offers open to guests are boundless: swimming, diving, golf, sailing, sunbathing, culture or the extremely popular excursions. Here, Mount Tahtali offers a brand new experience, with a stupendous view over the whole of southern Turkey and, naturally, the sea.</p>
<p>Diversity is an important factor for any successful tourist destination. And the contrasting experience the Mount Tahtali Aerial Cableway provides is a masterpiece! Having enjoyed sunbathing on sandy beaches in the morning, guests are then able to while away the afternoons amid the pleasantly cool temperatures of a snowy mountain summit. The aerial cableway brings the mountains and sea closer together – the Tahtali cable car provides Europe with a unique combination that is hard to match.</p>
<p>Unique experiences await: approach through a nature conservation area, modern base station, ride in a cabin with a capacity of 80, summit station with panorama terrace, 360° view, restaurant, short walks &#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Technical Details:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Summit station 2,363m above sea level</li>
<li>Base station 726m above sea level</li>
<li>Height difference 1,637m</li>
<li>Journey time 9 minutes 21 seconds  </li>
<li>80 passengers per cabin</li>
<li>470 passengers per hour</li>
<li>Maximum speed 10 m/s</li>
<li>Track ropes 4 x 51 mm</li>
<li>Haul rope 38 mm</li>
<li>Number of supports 4</li>
<li>Running power 537 kW</li>
</ul>
<p>Photos are coming soon&#8230;</p>
