About Combo: Genting Highlands Premium Outlets Cable Car + Genting SkyWorlds
The Genting Highlands Premium Outlets Cable Car — formerly known as Awana SkyWay — is the most spectacular way to arrive at Resorts World Genting. Boarding at Sky Sentral station (1,105 metres above sea level), the gondola ascends 620 metres to SkyAvenue station at 1,725 metres across a 2.4-kilometre route over one of the world's oldest tropical rainforests. The rainforest below is estimated at 130 million years old — among the oldest in the world — and the aerial view on a clear day is genuinely breathtaking. Glass-floor gondolas (available alongside standard 10-person cabins) offer a see-through base that amplifies the sense of floating above the canopy. An optional midway stop at Chin Swee Station allows visitors to explore the Chin Swee Caves Temple at no extra charge — a magnificent Taoist sanctuary with a nine-storey pagoda, dramatic 15-metre Buddha statue, sky terrace, and panoramic highland views.
Genting SkyWorlds at the summit of Genting Highlands is Malaysia's flagship outdoor theme park — a 26-acre, nine-world cinematic theme park inspired by iconic 20th Century Studios film franchises. The nine worlds are distinct in theme, atmosphere, and ride offering: Andromeda Base houses the Alpha Fighter Pilots 360° spinning simulation and the Terraform Tower drop ride; Rio brings Brazilian carnival energy with Samba Gliders hang glider and Rio Carnaval Chaos; Epic is a magical forest kingdom; Robots Rivet Town features family-friendly zeppelin and coaster rides; Ice Age brings Scrat's Nutty Adventure roller coaster; Independence Day delivers the ESD Global Defender 4D battle experience; and Night at the Museum and Planet of the Apes round out the film worlds. Three complimentary Virtual Queue reservations are included per ticket. The cool highland climate — typically 15–25°C year-round — makes outdoor rides genuinely comfortable. Book both on Thrillark.

Insiders' Tips
Genting SkyWorlds is closed every Tuesday (except Malaysian public holidays) — plan your visit on any other day. Download the Genting SkyWorlds mobile app before you arrive to make Virtual Queue reservations for your priority rides as soon as you enter the park. For the cable car, the glass-floor gondola is worth upgrading to for the most dramatic treetop-floating experience — request it at the station if available. Arrive at the cable car station early on weekends as queues build from mid-morning.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Genting Highlands Premium Outlets Cable Car?
The Genting Highlands Premium Outlets Cable Car (formerly Awana SkyWay) is a gondola cable car system at Resorts World Genting that connects Sky Sentral station at the mid-hill Genting Highlands Premium Outlets with SkyAvenue station at the peak. The 2.4-kilometre route ascends 620 metres over 130-million-year-old tropical rainforest and takes approximately 10 minutes. It operates from 7 AM to 11 PM daily and is one of the most visually spectacular scenic rides in Malaysia.
What is Chin Swee Caves Temple and can I stop there?
Chin Swee Caves Temple is a significant Taoist sanctuary located at the midway Chin Swee Station on the cable car route. Passengers with a valid cable car ticket can disembark at no extra charge to explore the temple grounds, which include a nine-storey pagoda, a dramatic 15-metre Buddha statue, a sky terrace with panoramic highland views, and several temple halls built into the hillside. After exploring, visitors use the same ticket to reboard and continue to the top or return to Sky Sentral. It is a peaceful and culturally meaningful stop that many visitors describe as a highlight of the cable car journey.
What is the difference between the standard and glass-floor gondola?
Standard gondolas at the Genting Highlands Premium Outlets Cable Car seat 10 passengers and have panoramic windows providing excellent views of the surrounding rainforest and mountains. Glass-floor gondolas seat 6 passengers and feature a transparent floor in addition to the panoramic windows — providing a vertiginous, floating-above-the-treetops perspective that significantly amplifies the sense of height and aerial drama. Glass-floor gondolas are popular and may have a short additional wait; request them specifically when boarding.
Is Genting SkyWorlds open in the rain?
Genting SkyWorlds has an indoor-outdoor mix of attractions and operates a specific Rain Policy for inclement weather. As an outdoor theme park in the highlands, light rain is a fairly common occurrence but most attractions continue operating. Heavy rainfall or thunder may temporarily pause outdoor rides for safety. The park publishes its Rain Policy on its official website. Visiting early in the day typically provides drier conditions as Genting's weather tends to shift from clear mornings to afternoon mist and showers. The cool highland climate (15–25°C) makes riding in light drizzle surprisingly pleasant.
What are the 9 themed worlds in Genting SkyWorlds?
Genting SkyWorlds' nine themed worlds are Eagle Mountain (the first zone at park entry), Central Park (housing Independence Day: Defiance, Night at the Museum, and ESD Global Defender), Andromeda Base (space-themed thrill zone with Alpha Fighter Pilots and Terraform Tower), Rio (carnival-themed with Samba Gliders, Blue Sky Carousel, and Rio Carnaval Chaos), Epic (magical forest kingdom with Epic Hummingbird Flyers and Voyage to Moonhaven), Robots Rivet Town (Bigweld's Zeppelins and family rides), Ice Age (Scrat's Nutty Adventure roller coaster and Ice Age Adventure), Liberty Lane (Planet of the Apes immersive experience), and the surrounding entertainment zones. Each world offers distinct theming, rides, dining, and retail.
What are Virtual Queue reservations at Genting SkyWorlds?
Genting SkyWorlds uses a Virtual Queue (VQ) system for its most popular rides and attractions. Each standard admission ticket includes 3 complimentary VQ reservations, which allow visitors to book a specific time slot for a chosen ride or show in advance — arriving at that ride at the designated time rather than waiting in the physical queue. VQ reservations are made through the Genting SkyWorlds mobile app or at VQ kiosks within the park at Eagle Mountain, Rio, Ice Age, and Andromeda Base. Downloading the app and activating your VQ reservations as soon as you enter the park is strongly recommended.
How does the highland climate affect the Genting SkyWorlds experience?
Genting Highlands sits at approximately 1,800 metres above sea level and maintains a consistent cool climate of around 15–25°C throughout the year — a dramatic contrast to the 30–35°C heat of Kuala Lumpur below. This makes outdoor theme park rides at Genting SkyWorlds comfortable year-round without the heat exhaustion risk of lowland parks. The cool air also enhances the immersion of the park's nine themed worlds. Morning visits tend to be clearer; afternoon mist and occasional rain are common but generally light and manageable.
When is Genting SkyWorlds closed?
Genting SkyWorlds is closed every Tuesday starting from 18 February 2025, with the exception of Malaysian public holidays. On all other days — Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday — and on public holidays regardless of day, the park is fully operational. Check the official Genting SkyWorlds website seasonal chart before visiting to confirm hours and any additional closure dates.
