Vogel Cable Car
Vogel
A mountain cable car on the south shore of Lake Bohinj that climbs to 1,535 meters in minutes, with views over Lake Bohinj and Mount Triglav.
The Vogel cable car departs from near Ukanc on the southwest shore of Lake Bohinj and climbs for about 5 minutes to the upper station at 1,535 meters. The viewing platform looks over the long, narrow Lake Bohinj and across to Mount Triglav, Slovenia's highest peak at 2,864 meters. In winter, this is one of Slovenia's most popular ski areas. In summer, you can hike mountain trails or take a chairlift to the higher Orlica ridge. Round-trip cable car tickets cost about 25 to 30 euros, and service stops in strong winds. The summit is about 10°C cooler than the lake, so bring a jacket.
