The funiculars and views were spectacular! It was cloudy and snowed the day we went, but it didn't take away from God's beauty!

View from top of Innsbruck. Animals in Alpine zoo were well kept. No noticable stress behaviour, except in few bird species kept in smaller "ecological boxes" cases.

The highlight of my visit was being able to ride the cable cars. It was too expensive when I came last 50 years ago.

I didn't really understand what was the advantage of buying this ticket formula, because I had to pay 15€ for the zoo and in the end the price was the same as buying the formula without having to be bound to the 8-30-09.30 schedule. Therefore, I paid 57€ total equal to the regular formula with the only difference of having the time obligation. The formula is not clear.

Wonderful view of the mountains and over Innsbruck

This is your chance to experience the beautiful city of Innsbruck from the 2,300m-high "Hafelekar." From here, you’ll get to absorb the unique panorama of the country and its surroundings. Your journey starts at the heart of Innsbruck's old town with the unique Nordkette Funicular. Within just 30 minutes travel from the city to the Top of Innsbruck with the funicular and two panorama gondolas. Admire the elegant contrast between modern stations of the Nordkette funicular and the rugged mountainous landscape. As the bustle of the city gives way to the tranquility of the mountains, you’ll find yourself surrounded by the untouched, pristine vistas of Tyrol!

For an elevated experience above Innsbruck's cityscape, consider the optional upgrade to journey from the city center to the Seegrube. Perched high above the rooftops, the Restaurant Seegrube offers a delectable selection of traditional Tyrolean cuisine, accompanied by awe-inspiring vistas of the city below. You can also upgrade and opt-in for access to the Alpine Zoo. Finally, choose to save some money by selecting the happy hour tickets which give you a 20% discount if you enter before 9:30am or after 3:30pm.
