Stans
cable car
The CabriO on Mount Stanserhorn is a unique double-decker cable car that takes passengers up to roughly 1,900 meters in about six and a half minutes. An open-air upper deck reached by a spiral staircase and side-mounted cables ensures completely unobstructed, 360-degree panoramic views of the Swiss Alps during the ascent.
Commenters widely praise the experience as breathtaking and highly recommended, appreciating that it is free to ride with the Swiss Travel Pass. While some viewers note that standing on the open upper deck looks scary, others actively compare it to other open-roof cable cars across Europe and North America.
- Climb the spiral staircase to ride on the open-air top deck for unobstructed 360-degree views
- Use a Swiss Travel Pass to ride the cable car completely for free
- Stay on the enclosed lower level if riding on the exposed open roof feels too scary
- Expect a quick ascent of roughly six and a half minutes to reach 1,900 meters
