Zugerbergbahn funicular, Mountain funicular in Zug, Switzerland
The Zugerbergbahn funicular connects the Schönegg suburb to Zugerberg mountain through a 1,280-meter track with an elevation difference of 366 meters.
Established in 1907, the funicular underwent multiple renovations, including carriage replacements in 1931 and station rebuilding between 1950 and 1971.
The funicular forms an essential link between urban life and mountain activities, enabling residents and visitors to access winter sports and hiking trails.
The funicular operates every 30 minutes from 06:00 to 23:00 on weekdays and 07:00 to 23:00 on weekends, with cars accommodating 80 passengers.
The 2009 renovation introduced panoramic cars and wheelchair accessibility, maintaining the balance between modern comfort and traditional mountain transport.
