Overview

Combine a vintage funicular train journey with a ride on the world’s only CabriO convertible cable car — an open-top gondola. After ascending Mt. Stanserhorn by funicular, you’ll see views of the Swiss alpine meadows replaced with open skies and soaring mountain peaks from the sundeck of the CabriO gondola. Tickets are prebooked to save you time and hassle before you board, and you’ll have free time to eat in the mountain’s revolving restaurant and take a summit hike.

Hop straight on the 19th-century funicular at Stans with your prebooked ticket
Feel the breeze on your face as you ride in the open-top CabriO cable car
Hike with a mountain ranger to find the summit of Mt. Stanserhorn with ease
Relax in the revolving mountain restaurant for 360-degree views over the peaks

Family fun

You can walk down halfway to the bottom on a nice trail. No need to reserve a space to walk down. If planning on taking the gondola down you need to reserve a spot.

Adventure in the mountains

Cynthia_M, Oct 2025

What a wonderful journey into the mountains! The views are spectacular, the people are generous and friendly, the food at the top is wonderful, and the cable car is quite the thrill. Would absolutely recommend. If you’re coming from Lucerne, the cheapest and easiest way to get there is by train. We didn’t know that and spent far too much money on a taxi! That’s our pearl for fellow travelers.

Do not buy this pass

Theresa_M, Jun 2023

There was NO skipping the line. We had to go through the same process as those who showed up without tickets. I’m fact, it would have been less time had we not bought the skip the line pass. They had to look up our tickets and verify them.

Top of the world!

Viator purchase gets you the token for up and down the mountain. (Yes you can hike down). The train ride is nice, and the Cabrio was nice and smooth. Colder on the outside as you get higher. Nice restaurant and gift shop.

WOW! The Alps!

Mary_C, Apr 2023

April 21, 2023. Saved almost $100. over the River cruise tour price. We took the 15 minute train ride from Lucerne to Stans for $8. The weather in Lucerne was cold, overcast, foggy & drizzly so was really worried when we were blinded with, what turned out to be, a cloud. I was looking upward but turned around and to my complete amazement, we were above the clouds with the most incredible view of blue skies and snow capped mountains! It turned out to be warmer on the mountain top in the sun! In the pictures you can see the clouds below (not glaciers). Florida girl went to the top of the world!

A great experience!!!

John_P, Jul 2022

What a fun experience. It seems to be not on all the major tour lines itinerary, so the experience has a more chill and relaxing vibe. My wife and I enjoyed the ride, with a viewing platform on top of the gondola all the way to the top! On top there is a restaurant, gift shop, and there are hiking trails. Highly recommend doing this experience if you’re in the area for a couple of days.

Beautiful day to visit. ...

Beautiful day to visit. Excellent service! It was good having all electronic tickets. Perfect weather. Taking the train was easy also from Lucere.

Unbelievable!!

Ladytiger75, Jun 2019

We took the local train to Stans and it was a 5 minute walk to the funicular at the base of the mountain. We then transferred to the enclosed gondola for the rest of the trip up the mountain......very easy and very nice!!
