Harder Railway |
|
|
|
It takes only 8 easy minutes to climb the 755 metres to Harder Kulm. By funicular of course! Marvel at the beautiful bird's-eye view of Interlaken and its neighbouring villages and sparkling Lakes Thun and Brienz. Gaze deep into the Lütschinen valleys and over to the spectacular summits of the Eiger, Mönch & Jungfrau.
The funicular travels past the Alpine Wildlife Park on its way up to Harder Kulm, Interlaken's own mountain. | |
The Harder Railway was opened on 15 May 1908. Even in those days, care was taken not to disfigure Interlaken's own mountain with a track cutting straight through the forest.
The railway almost describes a quadrant, something which is extremely unusual for a funicular.
