Whether you're looking for things to do in Innsbruck in February or in August, you'll find riding the new Nordkettenbahnen both a thrilling and scenic experience whatever the weather.
The funicular, designed by architect Zaha Hadid, begins in the heart of the city and carries you across the river Inn and up to Hungerburg, where cable cars take you farther up to Seegrube and on to 2,300-meter-high Hafelekar for 360-degree views.
Restaurants and viewing platforms are at each stopping point, and several hiking trails take off across the mountains. The fare is included in the Innsbruck Card.
