Feb 11, 2015 · We took an Uber to teleferiQo at the beginning of our vaca but unfortunately was told that it would be closed until mid January. Disappointed because we wanted to do the chairlift and see the swing. We did some research and saw that there are a few trails up to Cruz Loma and the swing.

The bottom station of the teleférico is situated on the northwest side of Quito’s city center. If you book a taxi, be sure to ask them to take you to “Vulqano Park” or “Parque Vulqano.” Vulqano Park is an amusement park, but your taxi driver will likely know you want to go to the cable car. Another transportation tip: Book a yellow taxi for this tr...
I’ll admit to being somewhat basic. When I’m doing my research about a place, I want to know where some of the best photo opportunities are. Especially because I like to share them here and on Instagram. And one of the best places for a photo — maybe in all of Quito — is on a swing that overlooks the city. On top of the mountain/volcano. After arri...
There are various viewpoints once you’re up there by the swing. On a clear day, you can see tons of mountains in the distance, including the famous Cotopaxi. It was not a particularly clear day for us, so we couldn’t see too much farther than the city. That was okay. We were wandering around trying to figure out what else there was to do/see up the...
When you’re ready to head back down, make sure you still have your ticket that you bought for the trip up. But the reason I gave this its own section is to just briefly explain the situation when it comes to getting back into the city. After you get off the teleférico and walk down near the entrance to Parque Vulqano, you’ll probably want to get a ...
Jun 20, 2017 · The Teleférico runs during rain or shine – even snow. But if there’s extremely high winds (more than 35 kilometers/21 miles per hour) or electric storms, it may be closed. The hours vary per day and season, so check the website to confirm.
The cafe is currently closed for refurbishment meaning there is no cafe anywhere near the cable car so there is no where to get refreshments if you are meeting up with friends to travel together. It took over 45 minutes of queuing before I got onto the cable car to go back to the city from the park.

The Teleférico de Madrid, or Madrid Cable Car, is a gondola lift in the Spanish capital city of Madrid. It is 2,457 metres (8,061 ft) long and links the Parque del Oeste with the Casa de Campo. The line was built by Von Roll and opened in 1969.
One of the world’s most horizontal cable cars (it never hangs more than 40m above the ground), the Teleférico putters out from the slopes of Parque del Oeste. The 2.5km journey takes you into the depths of the Casa de Campo, Madrid’s enormous green open space west of the city centre.
