CabriO
The double-decker aerial tramway with an open upper deck was inaugurated in 2012. The lift has suspension and traction cables on both sides of the cabins. And the floor area is equipped with stabilisers to compensate for the swinging - an innovation. This is the reason why you have the feeling of floating. On the upper deck, you get that "cabriolet feeling" when the wind blows through your hair. The CabriO cable car is unique in the world.Hiking
A selection of different hiking trails is available for more active guests. The well-marked trails offer something for every level of difficulty - from the 30-minute summit circuit to the 4-hour hike from Stans to the Stanserhorn.Stanserhorn Ranger
A ranger is out and about between the revolving restaurant and the summit every day from 10 am to 4 pm. He will be happy to show you where the eagle circles, where the most beautiful flowers grow or tell you an anecdote from the lively history of the Stanserhorn.
