Stoosbahn Funicular (Schwyz/Schlattli - Stoos)

The world's steepest funicular railway, the Stoosbahn, is an engineering marvel connecting Schwyz/Schlattli valley station to the car-free village of Stoos. Opened in 2017, its innovative barrel-shaped cabins adjust to the gradient, providing a level ride even on its steepest section of 110% (47.7°). The journey itself is an experience, offering initial views of the valley before ascending into the mountain landscape. Operating hours are generally from early morning until late evening, with frequent departures. A round trip ticket typically costs around 24-26 CHF for adults, with discounts for children and Swiss Travel Pass holders. It is available year-round, serving as the primary access point to the village.
