The Heavenly Gondola is open for
sightseeing.
Many locals believe that Fall is the best season at Lake
Tahoe, and
anyone who soaks in the view from the Heavenly Gondola will surely
agree!
Heavenly's Gondola is Lake Tahoe's "must-do" experience, a
year-round sightseeing opportunity unlike any other! The Gondola is
currently operating on its Fall schedule, running daily from 10:00am to
4:00pm.
Located one-half block west of Stateline, the Gondola is steps
from
most major lodging facilities. The eight-passenger cabins take guests
2.4 miles up the mountain in 12 minutes while they enjoy views of Lake
Tahoe.
Just when it seems the ride can't get any better, guests
arrive at
The Deck - a 14,000 square foot mid-station observation platform.
Located at 9,123 feet, guests are treated to views of the Carson
Valley, Desolation Wilderness and shore-to-shore views of Lake Tahoe.
