"Went here since the ride on the cable car was included in our Innsbruck Welcome Card 👏
Easy to reach by car and there was plenty of parking!
Great tour and the view on top was magnificent 👌 Playgrounds for the kids, restaurant for a cold drink or snack and lots of hiking and mountain bike trails down hill 👏"
Rasmus Sundgaard
"Easy accessible mountain cable car ride. The parking was not really clear since you can only buy a full day ticket.
We had free acces due to our Innsbruck Plus card (more than 3 nights stay with selected accomodation) and got to the top to take a small hike.
Outside of ski season it is very popular to take a mountain cart or mountain bike downhill."
Stanly
"We went in July (summer) using our welcome pass to access the gondola for free. Side note: the welcome pass is such a cool initiative by Innsbruck (free transport, discounts off activities and 4 gondola rides on the lesser known cable cars) we received our passes through our accommodation the day we arrived :) we took a bus and then transitioned into a tram for most of the journey up the mountain (stunning views along the way) then a short walk to the gondola/cable car. From the peak, walk up a steep hill which leads you to a lake overlooking the mountains, you then pass by cows grazing and end up back at the gondola in a 30 min round trip. So beautiful. Many other trails around but we only did the one."
