About Highlands Gondola

Highlands Gondola is a high-speed detachable quad chairlift designed for efficient uphill transport. These lifts move faster than fixed-grip chairs, reducing wait times and getting you back on the slopes quickly. Located at Northstar California in Lake Tahoe, this lift connects skiers and riders to the trails and terrain above.

Watch the full ride video above to see exactly what the lift experience is like, including loading, the ride up, and the terrain visible from the chair. Previewing lift rides on video can help you plan your day and choose the best route up the mountain.

Northstar California is one of the premier ski destinations in the Lake Tahoe region. For a complete overview including all lifts, trails, and local tips, check out our Northstar California resort guide.
