Kereta gantung adalah sebuah kereta yang menggantung yang berjalan menggunakan kabel. Jalur kereta gantung umumnya berupa garis lurus dan hanya dapat berbelok pada sudut yang kecil di stasiun antara.

Kapasitas kereta gantung dapat mencapai 3000 penumpang per jam, dengan kecepatan 4-6 meter per detik.
Jenis kabin yang umum digunakan adalah gondola dengan kapasitas 4 hingga 12 penumpang. Ada pula jenis kabin yang kapasitasnya lebih besar hingga dapat menampung 150 penumpang. Kabin dengan tipe khusus dapat berputar 360 derajat untuk menikmati pemandangan ke segala arah.
