SkiResort summer lift operations

What time does the last lift run?

If a lift runs until 6pm, then it will leave for its last run at 6pm. It will take everyone who is currently on the platform to the upper and lower stations. The operating hours of each cable car vary. 

Does the cable car really run every half hour?

Every half hour we will check in all passengers who have a valid ticket and are on the platform. Once the platform empties, the cable car stops and then resumes operation at half past one. On busy days, if visitors arrive consecutively and the platform does not empty, the cable car runs uninterrupted. 

Do you transport your own electric bikes or regular bicycles on the cable car?  

All bikes are transported on the summer cable cars free of charge. The Černohorský Express transports bikes inside the cabins. On chairlifts, both bikes and e-bikes are suspended from the chairlift structure. For electric bikes, please remove the battery before transporting, this will make the work of our staff easier.

Are you transporting strollers or wheelchairs for a child or multiple children?

We transport strollers and prams free of charge. We can also transport larger strollers for two children. Both prams and pushchairs are transported in a cab or on a separate seat. Especially when transporting on the seat, it is necessary to remove any loose items from the strollers that could fall out during transport. Children must not be in the pram during transport. For smaller children, we recommend taking them in a carrier or a belly bandana.  

Do you transport dogs on cable cars? 

We transport dogs free of charge on all summer cable cars. The dog must be leashed and muzzled at all times during transport, as is normal on a bus or train. The owner is responsible for the safety of the animal being transported.

Does a group have to book a cable car ride in advance? 

Even larger groups do not need a reservation for cable car transportation as long as it is during normal operating hours. 

Can I book an extraordinary cable car ride? 

Outside normal operating hours it is possible to arrange an extraordinary cable car ride, which is subject to a fee. For more information contact obchod@skiresort.cz

What about transporting wheelchair users and disabled people 

Transportation of wheelchairs, including electric ones, is possible in the cable car. Thanks to the ramp at the lower and upper stations, we can also take customers with severe mobility limitations up the Black Mountain. The transport of an electric wheelchair must be reported to the operator on arrival for departure. Transportation of the wheelchair is free of charge. We do not provide discounted fares for disabled card holders or their escorts.

On chairlifts, we only transport regular non-powered wheelchairs, where the wheelchair is taken out on a separate seat. However, the disabled person must be able to get on and off the chairlift on their own.  

Customers with a Disabled Persons Card do not receive a price reduction on fares or parking. There is also a charge for transporting an escort.  

Do small children have to pay the cable car fare?

Children under 6 years old ride for free, specifically those born in 2019 or younger. They do not need a ticket to ride, they use the children's entrances to enter the paid area. 
 

How many cable cars are there?

The Černohorský Express cable car has 8 seats.
The seat of the Portášky cable car has 3 seats. It is not possible to carry more people on it, even in case of babies in carriers or dogs. The Hnědý vrch chairlift has 4 seats. They cannot carry more people, even if they are babies in carriers or dogs.
