Hiking

The Künzelsau cable car, a funicular railway that was put into operation in 1999, connects the center located in the valley with the areas on the height. Primarily built as an environmentally friendly and efficient local transport system, it is also a sight for visitors to the city. The funicular railway overcomes an altitude difference of around 170 meters over a distance of 1,034 meters.

Hiking

The funicular is a striking landmark on the slope of Künzelsau and connects the valley with the higher residential areas. Even if you only pass it on your tour, it is an exciting technical element in the middle of nature.
