The '''Funivia di Monteviasco''' (''Monteviasco Ropeway'') is a passenger [[Aerial tramway|cable car]] connecting ''Ponte di Piero'' and ''[[Monteviasco]]'', in the [[Italy|italian]] ''[[comune]]'' of [[Curiglia con Monteviasco]] ([[province of Varese]]).

The cable car was inaugurated in 1989 in order to break the isolation of the village of Monteviasco in [[val Veddasca]] (a valley near the [[Lago Maggiore]]), which is not reached by driveways or railways and was previously accessible only by a couple of footpaths<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>.

The base station in ''Ponte di Piero'' is at an altitude of 543m, with the top station in ''Monteviasco'' at 943m. The cable car climbs with an ascension of 400m in an overall length of 981m<ref name=capt>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>.

The cableway features a single car carrying 15 people<ref name=capt />; the service runs year-round, with different timetables depending from the season<ref name=UTILI>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>.

Tickets are sold in both stations<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>; the prices are set by the regional authority of [[Lombardy]], because the cableway is part of the public transport network<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>.
