The cable car line to Lomnický Štít was one of the most technologically advanced projects in Central Europe at the time of its completion in 1941.
The system operates in two distinct stages: the first stage reaches Skalnaté Pleso, and the second stage requires a transfer to a separate cabin for the final ascent to the peak.
Lomnický Štít is the second highest peak in the High Tatras, with the summit housing an active meteorological and astronomical observatory.
This station serves as the lower terminal for the aerial cableway connecting Tatranská Lomnica to Skalnaté Pleso and Lomnický Štít. Located in the High Tatras, the station acts as the primary gateway for high-altitude transit into the peaks. It is a hub for both summer hikers and winter skiers accessing the surrounding slopes. The facility supports technical maintenance for the multi-stage lift system that reaches an elevation of 2,634 meters. It is situated within the administrative area of Vysoké Tatry, Slovakia.
