In Ukraine, there are dozens of cableways, and half of them are located in the Crimea. The "highlight" of this "air trail" is that there are absolutely no reference towers between the upper and middle station (which is as much as 1,670 km). Such a feature is practically a record in Europe. Only Germany overtakes the Crimean cableway. In this country there is an “air path”, the span of which is 1980 m.
