Less famous than the Rigi and Pilatus, the Stanserhorn is a small jewel in the crown of mountains around Lake Lucerne. This 1,897 metre high mountain rises on the south shore of Lake Lucerne.

The ride up to Stanserhorn is also a journey through local history. One witness is the old-time funicular from Stans to Kaelti. When it opened in 1893, it broke the world record for the longest funicular. Indeed, pioneers have enjoyed an affinity with Stanserhorn for some 120 years. And while historical gems like the old-time funicular will remain at Stanserhorn, the new CabriO will bring to the mountain a breath of fresh air.

World’s first CabriO cable car on the Stanserhorn

A new cable car system lets guests enjoy fresh air and great views around Mt. Stanserhorn. The double-decker cable car has an open upper deck.

Riding to the top of Mt. Stanserhorn with the wind in your hair, the blue sky above you and a fantastic 360° panorama: that was the concept of the new cable car to replace the one from Kaelti to Stanserhorn. A crazy idea? Maybe, but today we can see that it was a thoroughly viable one. The so-called “CabriO” cable car is the world’s first cable car with a roofless upper deck. The comfortable double-decker is the very latest in cable car technology. The lower level (with windows going almost from wall-to-wall) has space for 60 people. From there, an elegant staircase leads up to the sun deck, which offers room for about 30 people. The guests can enjoy 360° panoramic views as well as the fresh mountain air. The car moves on two side-mounted support cables.
