The cablecar operates on the half hour or whenever 40 passengers are gathered.
During opening hours, one may also climb and descend Masada on foot, using either the Snake Path from the east or the Roman ramp from the west. Wear good walking shoes, bring water, have both hands free, protect your head from the sun and do not attempt shortcuts. It is wise to avoid the Snake Path during the hot hours of summer days.
