The system is powered by an electric drive located at the terminal station.
The cableway project was developed as a solution to connect the resort center with the Snow Arena, which is located several kilometers away by road.
The cables span a total length of over 1.1 kilometers across the river valley.
Each cabin is fully enclosed and glazed to provide 360-degree views of the surrounding pine forests.
The cableway is considered a major piece of specialized transport infrastructure unique to the Baltic states.
The Druskininkai Cableway is the only aerial cable car system in Lithuania, spanning the Nemunas River. It connects the Druskininkai water park area with the Snow Arena, an indoor winter sports complex located on the opposite bank. The journey covers a distance of 1,161 meters at an altitude of approximately 45 meters above the water. Passengers travel in four enclosed cabins that seat up to four people each. The system operates year-round, regardless of weather conditions. It provides a direct aerial route between the town's major leisure attractions, bypassing road travel. The cableway was opened to the public in 2015 to promote integrated resort transport. It offers a unique vantage point of the Druskininkai forest canopy and the Nemunas River landscape.
