  • Ride the rails to the heart of the Alps

    The stations of the Hungerburg funicular, designed and planned by star architect Zaha Hadid, have become some of Innsbruck’s most famous landmarks, representing the state-of-the-art architecture in the heart of the Alps. Closely resembling Alpine glacier formations, the 4 stations of the Hungerburg funicular are worldwide unique in style. In as little as 8 minutes you can travel from the city center to Hungerburg, where you will enjoy a breathtaking view over the city of Innsbruck. Nostalgia – the cable car museum right inside the bottom station of the Seegruben cable car takes you on a ride through the history of the Nordkettenbahnen. The “Theresa Church” is only a few steps away from the observation deck.
