GENERAL RULES AND RECOMMENDATIONS – BENALMÁDENA CABLE CAR

  

I. VISITOR RESPONSIBILITY

Safety is a shared responsibility. Visitors to the Benalmádena Cable Car (hereinafter, the “Cable Car”) are expected to exercise sound judgment and to act responsibly in order to safeguard both their own health and safety and that of persons in their care, in particular minors, for whom they are responsible and whom they must supervise at all times.

To that end, visitors (i) must READ, COMPLY WITH AND OBSERVE all rules, directions, warnings and recommendations issued by Cable Car staff, and (ii) make PROPER AND RESPONSIBLE USE of the leisure facilities and any safety equipment that may be made available to them.

Each visitor undertakes to behave in a civic and considerate manner and agrees to (i) treat other visitors, Cable Car staff and the facilities with due respect, and (ii) preserve and respect the flora and fauna of the surrounding environment.

Visitors who, in the assessment of Cable Car staff, fail to comply with the rules and instructions and/or behave irresponsibly and/or disrespectfully towards other visitors and/or staff may be required to leave the Cable Car facilities without entitlement to any refund. In addition, where such visitors hold any season pass for leisure parks operated by GRUPO PARQUES REUNIDOS (“Bono Parques”), the measures provided for in the General Terms and Conditions of that product may be applied, including withdrawal or cancellation of the Bono Parques for serious breaches, or temporary withdrawal or suspension of the Bono Parques for minor breaches.

Finally, please note that the Cable Car reserves the right to report such conduct to the competent authorities, where appropriate.

Please consult the general operating rules set out below, as well as the specific guidelines and rules displayed at the entrance to each leisure facility.

In particular, visitors who are responsible for persons who—either because they are minors or because they have a disability—are unable to read or properly understand the rules, directions, warnings and/or recommendations must explain them and reiterate them whenever necessary, without prejudice to any assistance that Cable Car staff may provide. The Cable Car makes available specific information for visitors with disabilities.

Therefore, visitors must act responsibly both for their own health and safety and for that of the persons in their care and of the other people around them

II. CONDITIONS OF USE OF THE FACILITIES

  3. For safety reasons, pets are not permitted within the Park, except for duly accredited assistance animals, without limitation as to weight or size, upon presentation of the relevant documentation.

  4. The Park provides specific information for visitors with disabilities.
  5. Some attractions, restaurants, shops and/or pastimes may remain closed for organizational or technical reasons, which may include maintenance, repair, upgrading and/or improvement operations, as well as for weather-related reasons that make opening impossible or inadvisable for safety reasons, or due to the attractions’ technical limitations in the event of rain, hail, snow, wind or temperature changes. The Park will try to provide as much advance notice as possible via its website, its official social media profiles and the Park’s information points.
