What is a Hillside Lift?
It’s just a different way to refer to what we commonly call a funicular, inclined lift or hillside tram.

Whatever you call them, Hill Hiker, Inc. specializes solely in the manufacture and installation of these outdoor, hillside, cable-driven elevator / lift systems. Each Hill Hiker ® lift system is custom designed for individual needs and can be installed almost anywhere worldwide.
