Great value for money, I highly recommended!”

The cable car is currently under repair, but there was the option to hike up for an entrance fee of ca. €35 or take a taxi for €60 (a white van for up to 8 people). The driver drops you off at different points and then picks you up again, which made it very convenient. Thanks to that, we were able to see everything at a relaxed pace and still had time for a coffee, as well as a visit…”
