    Built in 1898 and listed as a Historic Monument, it is the oldest electric funicular in France. Climbing up to 1245m above sea level, it provides easy access to hiking trails, including the Sancy loop. Also take the time to admire the "Art Deco" style of the departure station as well as the operation of the engine room.
