The cable car to the Sophienalpe

Finally, the cable car to the Sophienalpe was designed as a technical test facility by the manufacturer Georg Sigl, who had already supplied the machinery for the cable car to the Kahlenberg. In 1881 the complex was closed again and removed.

It goes steeply up over a route from the 19th century. A cog railway used to run here. Did you know that? Here you should be a bit surefooted and take a closer look at the stones. They are still the originals from that time.

A test route for the cog railway to the Kahlenberg was once built here. Impressive technical achievement, it's quite a steep path.
