Показать описание

The Stoosbahn, also known as the Stoos Funicular, is a remarkable funicular railway located in Switzerland. It connects the village of Schwyz to the mountain village of Stoos, situated high in the Swiss Alps. The Stoosbahn holds the title for being the steepest funicular railway in the world, with a maximum gradient of 110%.

The funicular operates with a unique and innovative design. Instead of using a traditional track, it employs a combination of cylindrical tracks and specially designed cylindrical carriages. This arrangement allows the carriages to tilt as they ascend or descend the steep slope, ensuring passengers remain level and comfortable throughout the journey.
