Burgseilbahn Bad Lauterberg

The Burgseilbahn cable car stretches 440 meters across the landscape, connecting the town center to the summit of Hausberg mountain with a 111-meter elevation change.

The cable car system began operations on August 4, 1954, and underwent a complete technical renovation in 2001 to maintain its functionality and safety standards.

The mountain station provides access to the remains of Lutterberg Castle and a mountain restaurant where visitors gather for traditional German meals.

The cable car operates from April to October daily except Mondays, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with modified hours during November through March.

With a gradient of 63 percent, this installation ranks among the steepest double chairlifts in Germany, moving at a speed of 0.5 meters per second.
