The present invention relates to towing apparatus (200) for towing a vehicle with a cable transport arrangement. The towing apparatus (200) comprises a first attachment arrangement (204) configured to provide for attachment to a towing part of the cable transport arrangement. The towing apparatus (200) comprises a second attachment arrangement (208) configured for releasable attachment to a vehicle. The second attachment arrangement (208) comprises a main body (210) and first and second arms (212,214). The first and second arms (212,214) are substantially immovably mounted on the main body (210) and spaced apart from each other with each of the first and second arms defining a vehicle engaging profile (222). The second attachment arrangement (208) is rotatable such that the first and second arms (212,214) move between: a first position in which the vehicle engaging profiles (222) can be brought into engagement with or disengaged from a part of the vehicle; and a second position in which the vehicle engaging profiles (222) engage with the part of the vehicle so as to provide for towing of the vehicle.
