"For more than 50 years, the Cologne cable car has offered tourists and locals the ideal view of the impressive panorama of the cathedral city. From April to October, 44 gondolas shuttle back and forth between the Rheinpark on the right bank of the river and the zoo on the left bank of the Rhine."

From a height of 50 m you can see 50 km. Looking towards Cologne, Cologne's three domestic dragons hiss on the horizon: the coal-fired power stations Weisweiler, Niederaußem and Neurath with their white columns of steam.

If you approach the Zoo/Flora station from Deutz, you can see that the wire ropes point directly into the portal of the Flora. Just as the railway bridge points exactly in the axis of the cathedral. 1:1 for modernity.

🎨Beautiful painting on the concrete pillars in front of the cable car station.🚡
Nice photo opportunity 📸
The ride itself is a lot of fun, experiencing Cologne from a completely different perspective 🚡👌🏼
44 gondolas of the Cologne cable car run from spring to late autumn.🚡
