  • Good place to visit ! You can get a breath taking view from the top. Although would recommend you to buy a ticket only one way either upwards to the summit and enjoy the stroll while returning to the city
  • Great day trip. Stunning views. Lovely restaurant where you can rest have some food and a coffee. Outdoor seating. There's a little wild animal zoo and slides for the younger visitors. Great outing for the whole family. Reasonable prices.
  • Great Experience! Short trip to Bregenz or from Bregenz. We can only recommend it! Nature & recharge
  • Fantastic views. Well worth the visit.
  • Superb! A great cable car! Easy to embark and great view of Bodensee and Bregenz from the cable car as it goes higher and higher. Awesome view from the top.
