Krossobanen Cable Car

Krossobanen Cable Car is a historic cable car system that transports visitors from Rjukan up to the high mountain areas near Gaustatoppen. Opened in 1928, it was originally built to give residents access to sunlight during the long winter months. Today, Krossobanen serves as a convenient and scenic way to reach elevated viewpoints, hiking trails, and snow-covered landscapes. The short ride offers impressive views of the valley and surrounding mountains. For travelers, the cable car provides easy access to high-altitude scenery without the need for strenuous climbing.
