Top of Innsbruck, Tirol Austria | Nordkette Summer Adventure | Alpenzoo | Hafelekar | Pinoy Travel

Reach Innsbruck's highest viewing point, the 2,300m-high top of Innsbruck, Catch a glimpse of the normally shy wildlife and enjoy a unique panorama of the city and mountain.

Funicular
The Hungerburg Funicular has four stations — Congress, Löwenhaus, Alpine Zoo, and Hungerburg —

The Hungerburg funicular departs from the Congress station just down the road from the Innsbruck Old Town in Rennweg for the first stage of the Nordkette cable car trip. You can’t miss the modern design by architect Zaha Hadid.

The Löwenhaus station on the banks of the Inn River is reached within a few minutes after leaving the Congress. From here, the next stop is the Alpenzoo (750m), with the Hungerburg after that. It’s possible to disembark at the Alpenzoo for a visit to Europe’s highest-lying zoo and continue your journey up or down the Nordkette later. There is even a combi ticket that includes the cable car trip and the zoo.

The Hungerburg funicular leaves every 15 minutes. For the best views, try to get room in the front compartment (the furthest away from the tunnel when you leave the Congress station).

Cable Car (Nordkettenbahn)
The cable car leaving for Seegrube (1905 m) is in a different building from where you disembark when arriving in Hungerburg. Looking towards the mountain, it is in the big white building next to the restaurant on your left.
You have time for a few quick photos of the views before waiting in line for the next stage of your Innsbruck cable car trip. This part of the journey is spent in one big car with mostly standing room. It can get quite full on busy days when it may happen that you must wait for the next car.

Seegrube to Hafelekar
Stepping out of the Nordkette cable car at the Seegrube station, you can either go left towards the restaurant and enjoy the views from the terrace or go right to continue your journey to Hafelekar at 2256 m.

Final Destination – Hafelekarspitze
You made it all the way to 2256 m above sea level by cable car. Now you might as well let your legs take you a further 78m to the Hafelekarspitze at 2334 m. It only takes 15 minutes and it may be the only summit you will ever climb!
The 360° view will let you see all the way to Italy in the south and Germany to the north. The barren landscape behind the Hafelekar station is in stark contrast to the fertile Inn Valley and green mountain slopes to the front.
