Standseilbahn Rosshütte

Standseilbahn Rosshütte, Mountain funicular in Seefeld in Tirol, Austria

Standseilbahn Rosshütte is a funicular that connects the valley station at 1235 meters to the mountain station at 1762 meters along a 2469-meter track. The cable car climbs through the Tyrolean Alps and leads to a mountain restaurant and network of hiking trails above.

Plans to develop the Rosshütte area for skiing began in 1950. In 1954 a single-seat chairlift was built from Seefeld in two sections via the Hochegg to the Rosshütte; its capacity soon proved too low. After studies in 1968, construction of the funicular began on 14 April 1969, and it opened on 20 December 1969, with formal inauguration on 13 February 1970.

The funicular's name comes from the Rosshütte, the hut and ski area it has served since 20 December 1969; the line was ceremonially opened on 13 February 1970. Its two cars, built by Waagner-Biró and the Korneuburg shipyard, each hold 120 people and run on a 1200 mm gauge track.

The funicular runs year-round: in winter the cars travel at 12 m/s and take 5 minutes, in summer at 7 m/s and take 8 minutes. Each of the two cars holds 120 people. The line climbs 527 metres over 2469 metres, with gradients up to 37.2 percent, so sturdy footwear helps on the slopes above the top station.

The funicular has no intermediate station: the line runs directly from Seefeld to the Roshütte. Its two cars were supplied in November 1969 by Waagner-Biró and the Schiffswerft Korneuburg, each built for 100 passengers; since the 1985 winter season larger cars from VÖEST and the Swiss firm Gangloff carry 124 people.
