Exciting Experience Riding the SkyCab and Taman Lagenda
Langkawi SkyCab to the Langkawi SkyBridge!
Alhamdulillah, this marks my second time venturing to the Langkawi SkyBridge. The allure of this iconic attraction is simply irresistible, making it a must-visit destination for every traveler exploring Langkawi.
LANGKAWI SKYCAB
For those unfamiliar, the Langkawi SkyCab, also known as the SkyCab, stands as one of Langkawi's most captivating attractions. It offers visitors a remarkable journey via cable car across ancient rainforests dating back 550 million years to the oldest part of Southeast Asia, Mount Machincang.
✅ The cable car base station, nestled at the foot of Mount Machincang, serves as the starting point for an unforgettable adventure. From here, guests embark on a scenic ascent to the cool heights of Machincang mountain via the cable car system.
✅ The journey from the base station to the intermediate station spans 1,700 meters, reaching a height of 650 meters above sea level. At the intermediate station, visitors disembark to explore the observation platform, offering panoramic views of the surrounding islands and lush flora.
✅ A short climb up the stairs to the summit station, located 708 meters above sea level, rewards visitors with two viewing platforms atop Machincang mountain. Here, they can enjoy a 360-degree panorama of the Langkawi archipelago, Southern Thailand, and the picturesque landscapes below.
