Heimwehfluhbahn, Heritage funicular railway in Interlaken, Switzerland.
The Heimwehfluhbahn transports passengers along a steep 186-meter track, climbing 92 meters in elevation from Interlaken to the summit station at 662 meters.
Built between 1903 and 1906, this funicular system features original mechanical components from Ludwig Von Roll's Ironworks and electrical parts from Alioth & Company.
The funicular maintains its traditional Swiss engineering standards, connecting visitors to mountain viewpoints while preserving early 20th-century railway technology.
The funicular operates daily from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with extended hours until 10:00 PM during June and July, carrying up to 540 passengers per hour.
The railway carriage system runs on a single track with a passing loop, where two cabins cross paths midway during their 3-minute journey.
