Genting Cable Car Opening Hours
Awana SkyWay normally operates from 7 AM to 11 PM. Allow extra time for queues, a Chin Swee stop and any temporary operating changes.
Awana SkyWay operating hours
Awana SkyWay connects Sky Sentral at mid-hill with Genting Highlands Station at the peak. The line is approximately 2.8 km long and the ride itself takes about 10 minutes.
What time should you arrive?
If you are making a day trip, an earlier arrival gives you more time at the peak and more flexibility for the return ride. If you plan to stop at Chin Swee Caves Temple, allow additional time rather than treating the cable-car journey as only a 10-minute transfer.
On weekends, public holidays and school holidays, allow extra time for parking, ticketing and boarding.
Planning the last ride down
If your car is parked at Genting Highlands Premium Outlets or your onward transport leaves from Sky Sentral, plan backwards from your transport connection. Leave a sensible buffer for walking through SkyAvenue, queues and the cable-car ride.
Awana SkyWay vs Genting SkyWay
| Route | Typical published hours | Journey |
|---|---|---|
| Awana SkyWay Sky Sentral ↔ Genting Highlands | 7 AM–11 PM | ~10 minutes / 2.8 km |
| Genting SkyWay Gohtong Sentral ↔ Resorts World | 9 AM–7 PM | ~15 minutes / 3.4 km |
For most visitors using Genting Highlands Premium Outlets or the Sky Sentral bus terminal, Awana SkyWay is the more convenient route. Genting SkyWay is a separate cable-car line with a different lower station.
What happens during maintenance?
The operator may use the other cable-car line as an alternative during scheduled maintenance. Because closure dates and replacement arrangements change throughout the year, this guide does not maintain a dated maintenance calendar. Follow the operator's current transport arrangement for your visit date.
Does Chin Swee Station have separate cable-car hours?
Chin Swee is an intermediate station on Awana SkyWay rather than a separate cable-car system. The same Awana SkyWay ticket includes a complimentary stop there. Allow extra sightseeing and walking time if you plan to stop.
