The mountains are calling! And in Innsbruck you respond with an impressive cable car that connects city life with the majestic mountains: the Nordkettebahn.

An urban masterpiece

In the middle of the pulsating city center of Innsbruck, an adventure begins that leads to the heights of the Alps. The Hungerburgbahn, which opened in 2007 and is part of the Nordkettebahn system, takes visitors to the Hungerburg district, 288 meters higher, in just eight minutes. It impresses not only with its efficiency, but also with its spectacular architecture, which attracts people from all over the world.

From the city center to the slopes in 20 minutes

Imagine strolling through the streets of Innsbruck and twenty minutes later standing on skis, ready to whiz down the slopes. The Nordkettebahn offers this unique experience. After the Hungerburgbahn we continue with the Seegrubenbahn, which transports 95 people to the ski area at a speed of 10 meters per second.

A breathtaking view

For those looking for the ultimate panorama, the Hafelekarbahn continues to the 2256 meter high Hafelekar. Here you will find a view that will make every mountain lover's heart beat faster.

More than just a cable car

The Nordkettebahn is not just a means to an end. It not only connects the city with the mountains, but also the people with each other. It is this combination of urbanity and alpine nature that makes it something very special. It's not just about skiing or snowboarding, but also about the experience, the feeling of community and the breathtaking nature.

A legacy of innovation

The tradition of cable cars in Innsbruck goes back to 1928, when the first cable cars were put into operation. A technical masterpiece back then, the trains are now more comfortable and faster, but the core of the experience remains unchanged.

Whether you come to the mountains to ski, snowboard or just relax, the Nordkettenbahn offers an unforgettable experience that you won't soon forget.
