Ropeways aren’t that unnerving unless one has a severe degree of vertigo, but taking a ride on these single-person ropeways needs real guts. Not only do they carry just a single person, but they are front open too. There is only one narrow bar to support the seated passenger from the front. These chairlift ropeways in Rajgir are the only ropeways in Bihar. The Rajgir ropeway is known as one of the oldest ropeway lines in India, and it takes passengers uphill to the marvellous Shanti Stupa. The 101 chairlift ropeways fly over the beautiful Ratnagiri hill, covered by thick forests. The region comes under the Pant Wildlife Sanctuary. Read on to know more.
