Best Hikes to Old Ochsenkopf Cable Car Gondolas

Tips

Mo
Some of the two-seater gondolas of the old cable car to the Ochsenkopf were set up, as here. The rest was sold to private individuals, among others.
The new track on the north side will be opened this winter and next year the old track on the south side will be dismantled and a new track will also be built. From then on, these two-seater chairs are history. Just the sound of the hood opening and closing reminds me of countless skiing experiences. Only the safety bracket with the baseboards and the noise when overcoming the rollers on the supports are missing.

Good idea to use this old gondola as a rest stop instead of throwing it away.
