Summer 
Rather than replacing this charming funicular with something more modern, it was restored lovingly, down to all historic details, such as the dark-red interiors and the curtains that blow in the wind! At the middle-station Kälti one encounters the 20th century in form of the aerial cable-car installed in the 1970's.
At the top, the 21st century beckons in the form of the brand-new revolving restaurant Rondorama. The view is onto 100 kilometers of alpine peaks and 10 lakes. There are many hiking possibilities and good food to round off the experience.
