Hörnle railway

The suspension railway and its history

This lift is unique and you should try it! Correctly described, it is one suspension railway with Double swivel chair. Within 20 minutes you can float comfortably towards the summit.

The idea of ​​the engineers around Otto Brda was to create a comfortable lift for people with walking difficulties and older people. The seats fold away when you get out - you just have to stand on the yellow markings.

The railway went into operation in 1954. Then as now, the lift swings leisurely up the mountain: the ride takes 20 minutes on the cornflower blue wooden seats; The Hörnle Bahn is not just a mundane means of transport, the train up the local mountain of the Bad Kohlgrub Moorbad is cult!

Note for KönigsCard owners:
1 free ascent and/or descent per day; in winter 1 x 3 hours daily. Lift ticket (ski pass requirement: at least 2 nights) free
