Hop on the cable car and climb up Linz's Pöstlingberg! With the Pöstlingbergbahn, even the journey to the summit of Linz's local mountain is a special experience! The ride out of the city into nature is comfortable and relaxed.

 The Pöstlingbergbahn Linz, one of the steepest adhesion railroads in Europe, creates a harmonious combination of nostalgia and modernity with its design. In just 20 minutes - starting from Linz's main square - it climbs the city's 539-meter-high local mountain. Along the way, it passes the Anton Bruckner Private University and the Linz Zoo.

The cars of the historic Pöstlingbergbahn Linz have been gently modernized. Regardless of whether you take the new train or the nostalgia cars (only in summer) - a trip up the Pöstlingberg is an experience for the whole family.
