Loen is attracting attention with new highlights that<br />
make for an exceptional mountain experience. In addition<br />
to the world’s longest via ferrata suspension<br />
bridge, the region boasts a new ropeway attraction.<br />
At 53° (133%), the Loen Skylift offers one of the<br />
world’s steepest aerial tram rides. The tramway has<br />
two sets of track ropes and no track rope brake. It<br />
features a strongly overhanging tower standing on<br />
two feet and anchored back with a tie bar. Each cabin<br />
provides ample room for 45 passengers.<br />
The trip on the Loen Skylift takes just five minutes.<br />
The lower terminal lies directly on Loen Fjord with a<br />
landing stage for boats bringing tourists from visiting<br />
cruise liners. The upper terminal is located on the<br />
1,011-meter Mount Hoven. From here, visitors can enjoy<br />
the stunning view across the fjord to the Jostedal<br />
Glacier, which is the biggest on the European mainland.<br />
A new restaurant and a wide range of hiking<br />
trails provide attractions for all types of guests.
