The Keçiören Gondola (Turkish: Keçiören Teleferik) is a two-station gondola-type line of aerial lift passenger transport system situated in Keçiören district of Ankara, Turkey. Opened on April 2008, the 1,653 m (5,423 ft) long line connects Kavacık Subayevleri neighborhood (Atatürk station) in the south with Tepebaşı neighborhood (Cumhuriyet station) in the north within Keçiören. It is operated by Keçiören Municipality.[1][2]
The line was designed and the system was delivered by the Turkish ropeway producing company STM Sistem Teleferik from İzmir.[3] The construction works completed in November 2007, and following the test runs, the line went in service in April 2008. It is the longest urban gondola lift line in Turkey.[1][2][4]
Sixteen detachable cabins each capable of eight passengers transport hourly 384 people between the two stations. The ride lasts 20 minutes.[1] The municipality dropped the fare from initially 5.00 to 1.00 in April 2013.[2]
