ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE: An aerial cable transport installation for a gondola lift or a cablecar having a large span, the installation comprising: two towers located apart by a large spaced distance, each tower having a base anchored to the ground and a head forming a support point, a cable stretched between the two towers, the cable being slidably supported on the tower heads and following a predetermined catenary trajectory, at least one car carried by the cable to travel on the trajectory, and a tower guying cable for each tower, each tower guying cable extending from an anchoring point adjacent the tower base to the tower head. The towers lean towards one another to reduce the cable span and the tower height, the distance between the cable support points on the towers being smaller than the distance between the bases anchored to the ground, the tower gradient being substantially perpendicular to the catenary trajectory at the cable support point on the tower, each tower guying cable extending in a direction opposite a leaning direction of the corresponding tower.
