The Sandia Peak Tramway is located adjacent to Albuquerque, New Mexico. Tramway lifts you from the Sandia foothills through five natural life zones to the top of the Sandia Mountains. The Observation Deck on Sandia Peak rises 10,378 feet above sea level. The twin red and blue cars make their way (distance of 2.7 miles ) up the cables to the top of the mountain where tourists, skiers and diners can find magnificent views and a 20-degree temperature drop. The tramway makes a trip every 20-30 minutes throughout the hours of operation. The Sandia Peak Aerial Tram ride is only about a 15 in duration, one way, but it has the distinction of being the USA’s Longest Aerial Tram.
