Babadag cable car ?
« on: October 10, 2012, 09:57:16 AM »
I read an article some time ago in 'Land of Lights' about a proposal to build a cable car to the top of Babadag.
Am I likely to see it in my lifetime ?    ;)

I shan't be holding my breath then - The Marmara tunnel in Istanbul will probably beat it !!!!

Reminds me of the Seki ski resort/ski lifts - whatever happened there - did it happen? I'd forgotten about it really.

One of our neighbours works for the consultant company that did the design work - latest from him is that all the ''planning permission'' has been granted - but now they need sponsors to fund the build. Anyone fancy investing - I don't think I will......

Can you remember when the wise voices were saying that the Gocek Tunnel was just a pipe dream and would never be constructed?

I think it's all running Keith - they even have a facebook page:

Everything is possible in Turkey Kevin. If the cable Car is not up and running then drive to the top or even take the Dolmus 10 t. Just make sure when you do go it is a very clear day to take advantage of the spectacular views. The drive is a great experience and not too difficult.  :)  8)
