"The Sandia Peak Tramway" Top 5 Page for this destination Sandia Peak Tip by VeronicaG

The Sandia Peak Tramway, scales the Sandia Mountains as it takes visitors nearly three miles to the top on a long line of cables, making it the longest tramway in the world.

This ride zips to the top in fifteen minutes. Although the tram is convenient for accessing the ski areas in winter, it runs all year round.

We didn't have time to take this thrilling trip on the tram, but we certainly drove past it enough times on our way to the balloon fiesta, watching it climb to the heights.

Sandiago's, a Mexican restaurant, offers a scenic dining experience from the top of the peak. We've heard several friends say that the vista spread out before them was fantastic. For hours of operation and rates see website below.
