Awana SkyWay and Genting SkyWay
Two gondola lines from mid-hill stations to the Resorts World Genting hilltop: the Awana SkyWay via Chin Swee temple and the direct Genting SkyWay.
Awana SkyWay and Genting SkyWay
Two separate gondola lines carry visitors from the mid-hill of Genting Highlands, Pahang, to the Resorts World Genting hilltop. The Awana SkyWay runs 2.8 kilometres from Sky Sentral to SkyAvenue with a stop at Chin Swee, climbing 620 metres from 1,105 to 1,725 metres above sea level in about 10 minutes. The Genting SkyWay runs 3.4 kilometres from Gohtong Sentral Station to Resorts World Station in about 15 minutes, without stops. The lines close in turn for scheduled maintenance, so check the operator's notice before travelling.

Practical points
Hours and maintenance closures differ between the two lines.
From the operator's pages
- Listed hours on 1 October 2026: Awana SkyWay 7am to 11pm; Genting SkyWay 9am to 7pm. Each line also closes for scheduled maintenance on dates the operator publishes. Re-check before travel.
- Each passenger may bring one aircraft cabin-size bag into the gondola. Larger bags go to storage or carry a surcharge.
- The operator's terms note that haze and bad weather can affect operations.
Live Traveller's advice
- With large suitcases, plan for the baggage rule before boarding.
- A glass-floor gondola suits those who want the view below; it seats fewer people, so families may need to split.
- Allow time for a stop at Chin Swee on the way up or down.
At Genting Highlands
Both lines end at the hilltop resort, where the theme park is.
