Surrounded by flowering rhododendrons, the funicular takes you up the steep track to Mercury. At this point the tracks meet.

The train attracts numerous visitors to the Merkur every day. It is currently closed due to Corona. The incline from 20% to 60% (the last part) has it all. The journey takes about 10 minutes. The price up / down costs 6 €, child 3 €. But it's definitely worth going up here. In the wind you can watch the parachute flyer. I personally recommend a night run up to Mercury, it's ne mortz gaudi.
