Zugerbergbahn funicular, Funicular in Zug, Switzerland

The Zugerbergbahn is a funicular railway in the south-eastern suburbs of Zug, Switzerland. It links the Schönegg suburb with the Zugerberg mountain, covering a length of 1280 metres and a difference of elevation of 366 metres. Its fourth-generation cars, introduced in 2009, are silver-coloured and have a panoramic roof.

The line opened on 14 May 1907, owned and operated by the Zuger Berg- und Strassenbahn AG, which also ran a 985 mm electric tramway linking Schönegg with Zug railway station. The cars were first replaced in 1931; the lower station was rebuilt in 1950–52 and the upper station with its drive in 1970–71. A 1984 renovation brought a third, red car generation, 1992 modernisation allowed one-man operation, and 1997 brought automatic running.

The line's name joins Zug with the Zugerberg, and its valley station is in the Schönegg suburb. Since 1959 the operator has run buses instead of its original tram link to Zug station; today bus line 11 of the Zugerland Verkehrsbetriebe connects the valley station with the town centre and railway station, timed to meet every departure.

The funicular departs every 30 minutes, from 06:00 to 23:00 (from 07:00 on Saturdays and Sundays). Bus line 11 of the Zugerland Verkehrsbetriebe links the lower station at Schönegg with Zug railway station and the town centre, and its buses are timed to connect with every funicular departure.

The fourth-generation cars introduced in 2009 have a panoramic roof, so passengers can look up at the mountainside and sky during the seven-minute climb. The same 2009 rebuild made both stations step-free, and the line has run automatically since 1997.
