Day trips

The sunrise ticket

Ride the first train up, watch the light come across the valley from the observatory deck, and take the 10:15 back down. Sold at Falzgrund from 06:45, includes the deck fee.

Regulars

The 10-trip

Ten rides at the price of eight and a bit, valid three years, transferable within a household. The commuter's answer to a line that runs whether or not the sun does.

Groups

From ten up

Groups of ten or more get a fifth off and one free companion ticket. School groups from the valley ride at half fare all year; the railway's founders would have insisted on it.
