parking is impossible. go with this! I was actually permitted to park in the reserved, but the rest of the party liked this
A pleasant drive from the castle to the city and back, is nothing special but shorten the descent into the city quite and does not have to be thinking about parking because you have parking in front of the castle. Time of ride down or up is 5min and goes every 10min.
When I visited , the weather was not so great and could not get good views from the top, but I am sure if the weather's good, the views would have been fantastic. Worth the trip tough.
This may seem like an overpriced venture, but after the bustle of the market and strolling around downtown (or biking!) it's totally worth it to take the funicular 1) to say it aloud to yourself and 2) for the views. The castle up top has a lot of interesting history but the views are the real gem.
Gives a wonderful view as you go up to the castle. Not cheap but well worth it even though its quite short. Staff is efficient and well trained. Modern glass elevator- must do esp. if its clear.
Smooth ride up. The ride up in the funicular doesn't include entrance to the castle. Signposts to show how to buy tickets would be nice when you get to the top.
Ride up, walk down or be lazy and take a return. The easy way to reach the castle and get a great view - best on cloudless day - you can see over the Alps.
A short uneventful ride to the castle. Probably better than walking but there are some good views from the top
Enjoyed the walk up to the castle, view of the city and seeing original POWs living conditions with the history of the castle.
Fun for kids to take the funicular up the hill. The views are breathtaking and you feel like on top of the world when you climb up the castle tower. In the old castle chapel you can get your name written in old 16th century style which out kids loved.
