Home > Heights of Abraham


A tourist attraction in Derbyshire, England, the Heights of Abraham is a country park on top of Masson Hill, accessed by a cable car from Matlock Bath. Amongst the attractions in the park, which has been open since Victorian times, are cavern and mine tours. The cable car was opened in 1984 and was the fist alpine cable car in Britain. The route is 568m long and climbs 169m.

The Heights of Abraham company has since become a consultant for other cable car systems, and was also responsible for the passenger pods on the London Eye.
