    The cable car takes visitors from Kampenn near Bozen to the 1,100 m high Kohlerer Berg, more precisely to the village of Kohlern, and overcomes an altitude difference of 835 m. The cable car was opened in 1908, which makes it the oldest free-floating cable car in the world: Back then, financed by the Bozen innkeeper Josef Staffler, it was supposed to take guests to the Kohlern mountain. It opened a month before the Wetterhorn elevator in Switzerland.

    The view from the cabins and from Kohlern itself is wonderful and includes not only the city, but also the high plateau of the Renon and Salten as well as the surrounding peaks. In 2006 it was renovated and new cabins installed: today they usually take 20 people every half hour and bring them to Kohlern in five minutes. Once at the mountain station, numerous hiking trails await visitors. As an alternative to the mountain railway, a 9 km long curvy and rather narrow road leads up to the village.
