Gelmerbahn / Mountain Roller Coaster🎢 Funicular / Blue lake / Switzerland Guide
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 мар 2023
- 🎢Gelmerbahn, the steepest open funicular in Europe with a 106% gradient, will take you to Lake Gelmer (1850 m above sea level). Helmersee is the starting point for hiking and mountain tours.
The Gelmerbahn lower station is easily accessible both by car and by post bus (bus stop: Handegg, Gelmerbahn). The station is located in Khandegg, right on the road to the Grimsel Pass.
OPERATING HOURS
June, September, October: 9.00 a.m. - 4.00 p.m. (last ascent 3.48 p.m., last descent 4.00 p.m.)
July, August: 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. (last ascent 4:36 p.m., last descent 4:48 p.m.)
PRICES
Adults return CHF 36 / one-way CHF 18
Children 6-15 years return CHF 18.- / one-way CHF 9.-
💡INTERESTING
Gelmerbahn ranks second among the steepest cable cars in the world. First place narrowly belongs to the Scenic Railaway cable car in Australia (128%).
However, given the fact that Helmerbahn passengers ascend to the dam in a completely open car, shaped like a large red staircase and without a roof, protected from falling by a single crossbar, suggests that the Swiss cable car offers a much more refined experience.
Enjoy watching friends and have a great trip!!! 🛫🇨🇭

Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you so much love your videos.
@@jezza159 Wow You are very kind, thank you very much!🫶🏻😁
@@a-travelvideo You are welcome

What kind of camera are you using? Looks beautiful
This is not a roller coaster but a tourist train or a better term lift taking tourists up and down a mountain. It's beautiful scenery thank you for this.
Thank you so much 😊
And that is why I called it click-bait. It isn't a roller coaster!
@@GeorgeGeorge-yb2sz It's not click bait at all. That's the name of the Funicular. It says so on the front of it. Can't you read. !!
@@brandyboy65 Thank you 🙏
I read ROLLER COASTER! In America that means a track with cars that go fast and keep you awake, not some passive LAME train that would put the average person to sleep!@@brandyboy65
Doesn’t matter if it’s a roller coaster or not in my eyes. Beautiful scenery, and a virtual visit without the jet lag. Thank you so much for posting it!
Thank you so much 😊🙌🩷
Not saying it matters what I was expecting was to see a real Roller Coaster through the mountains imagine that. I have always wanted to see one that would be the ultimate thrill one that goes out on the edge of the mountain and down imagine that. Not that I would go on it. Just always had this idea since I was a kid to build one on a mountain and through a mountain.
That Caribbean blue lake in the middle of the Switzerland Alps is breathtaking. Overall, lovely scenery.👍🏽♥️💯
❤️Thanks for stopping by 👍😁
Aaaah... Majestic Switzerland! My favorite country on earth. 🇨🇭😍🇨🇭💕🇨🇭💖
Thanks for watching ❤️
This video is incredible!! Its so clear i actually feel like I'm there!! After a hard day at work this just takes me away from the real world!! Thank you!!
Thank you so much 😊 All the best 🩷
Amazing! Video is very clear! What camera did you use for this?
@@travelermarveller8969 Thanks a lot! This is an iPhone camera, although I don’t remember 11 or 13 😁
@@travelermarveller8969 Oh yes it's 13 pro
Exactly my reaction too. Very calming.
I thought Scotland's scenery was beautiful but the scenery here is unbelievable.
Thank you very much for your feedback 🩷
Switzerland is truly incredible.
I’ve been fortunate to have travelled to both Switzerland and Scotland and loved the scenery in both, though the Swiss mountains are definitely higher and more “spectacular”. However, I REALLY loved the views and atmosphere in the Scottish highlands and have found nothing which compares.
Have you driven up - or down - the Cattle Pass and also to Kinlochewe? Stunning views, as are those in Norway, especially around Geirangerfjord.
Agreed, as someone from the UK when I visit Germany / Austria / Switzerland I'm always captivated by how gorgeous the nature is.
Scotland much better and we've got the mighty MIDGE 😂
Omg I would die of a heart attack on this! It’s gorgeous scenery, but this video is more than enough for me! Even watching this I’m only 2:25 minutes in and think I’ve seen enough. 😅
Thank you for sharing, 👍I understand you❤️😁
@@a-travelvideo I hope you don’t think I’m being rude - it’s just that I’m terrified of heights. But I’m glad you made the video so people like me can see just how gorgeous it is in the mountains.
@@KT-sq2ml Oh no, in no case do I think so 😊Apparently you had a negative experience and it was associated with a fear of heights, fears limit us (( I wish you all the best!❤️🙌
I'm scared of heights too I think I would struggle getting on this thing.
@jezza159 you are not alone, lol. I'd say " oh, heck no" to this one.
I was expecting an actual roller coaster. That is more like a tram. Just hate to see what happens if the brakes gave out on that. But the view is awesome and the lake is really nice too.
Thanks for stopping by❤️They maintain their equipment well and people's safety is always of paramount importance.👍
Not a roller coaster, but Switzerland is magnificent!
Thank you so much ❤️
There are no mountain ranges like this in my country, it's amazing to see the vistas you captured with such clarity.
Thank you so much 😊🩷🩷🩷
What is your country?
Absolutely breathtaking! That lake is incredibly beautiful, I never saw anything like it! I myself couldn’t ride the tram as I’m terrified of heights. When I was little the Ferris wheel I was riding stopped and I was at the top. It began falling apart and fireman had to carry us down. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video with us! ❤️
Thanks for your feedback! ❤️I'm so sorry you had to go through this🙌
Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for sharing!!❤
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
What a beautiful video. This makes me want to visit this place in the future.
That’s great 👍🙌Thank you so much!❤️
I think they misunderstood the concept of what a rollercoaster is actually supposed to do. That is just a little tourist train. Taking people up-and-down a mountain, not a roller coaster. Very, very beautiful scenery, thank you.
Yes thank you! Rather, this is a marketing ploy in quotation marks, a Swiss roller coaster 😁😂
TECHNICALLY, it's US ..we have the issue with the word. It is a roller (mechanics) coaster (it is coasting) and it's on a mountain. So, let's just appreciate what it is without the need for correction. Ay
@@Jennifer-gr7hn It is _not_ coasting, it's powered by an electric motor & cable. I have absolutely _no_ "issue with the word," because I know what it means.
They were not trying to make a roller coaster you silly goose!
Now release the break, then we have a roller coaster.
Absolutely beautiful scenery gorgeous country 7:58
Thank you so much)))
Absolutely fantastic! This is an inclined railway, or funicular, built in 1926 to facilitate transporting building materials to & from the construction of the Gelmersee Reservoir. It uses a cable to ascend and descend, run by an electric motor. Opened to the public in 2001. The oldest, The Reisszug at Hohensalzburg Castle at Salzburg, Austria, still operates & dates from 1495 or 1504! Accurate date unknown. To end the tired argument below, from a wooden roller coaster hobbyist & historian (me); Inclined Railways, or Funiculars, do not coast, therefore they are not roller coasters by technical definition.
Thanks for your interesting comment, that's great!❤️👍🙌
@@a-travelvideo You're welcome, thanks for your amazing video of such an historical & enjoyable ride with spectacular scenery!
@@crooked-halo Thank you! You are very kind!🫶🏻😊🙌
When I was just 5yrs old, I fell off a 18-20 ft cliff. Suffered a mild concussion and that was it. But needless to say I developed an intense fear of heigth8. Even though while sitting in bed and feeling like I'm falling off the bed,dizzy, whole 9yards...IT'S BEAUTIFUL!
Oh, this is very sad, I sympathize, I fell down a slide in kindergarten as a child, but my memory was erased somehow and now I’m not so afraid of heights, rather I can calm myself down. Thanks for sharing! 🩷
Ok let me say this beautiful beautiful scenery but my anxiety could never let me do this bravo to the people climbing the mountain and walking out the rocks very brave
Wow thank you so much 😊🫶🏻good sharing!🙌
Omg is an understatement majorly the fact that they built a miniature railroad to go up steep mountains. It’s just freaking awesome and by the way, you’re a beautiful woman thank you for the videos.
Thank you for watching, your feedback and thank you for the compliment, I’m very pleased to hear it 🥰
Oh my…. This area is beyond beautiful!!!!🥰
Thank you so much!😁🫶🏻
Awesome! Loved it! Had no idea this place existed.
Wow really? 😉Thanks for stopping by❤️
For me, this is a million times more terrifying than any real roller coaster!!! Omg, just watching this makes my legs go weak. And I'm sitting down! 🤣
Oh honey, I know this is really scary. Thanks for stopping by!🌺❤️
Thank you for sharing, that was so beautiful and that water was BLUE!!!
Thanks for stopping by ❤️😁
WOW! Amazing scenery! ❤
Thank you so much
No matter what the terrain the Swiss will have a lovely way of traversing it!
😁👍Thank you. They'll find ways everywhere 😁
@@a-travelvideo So true! I've loved Switzerland ever since first visiting as a schoolboy - many years ago!
@@robertp.wainman4094 Wow this is wonderful😁
Thank you for the tour. Beautiful mountains and refreshing lake. ❤

This is some of the most beautiful travelog footage I've ever laid eyes upon. The telephone hold-music was just 'okay'.
Thank you so much dear ❤️🫶🏻I am glad 😌
I had never heard of this glorious locale -- thank you so much for sharing your amazing experience!!! There aren't enough adjectives to describe this scenery... 🏞️🎶💕🎇
Thanks for stopping by! ❤️I'm glad you liked it🙌
So beautiful. It’s hard to believe all this came from earth quakes and the lakes from melted snow on glaciers. Too beautiful to image of not seen with my own eyes.
Thanks for stopping by!🙌❤️🌺
So beautiful. Thankyou for sharing this. ❤💙
Thank you so much ❤️
OMG! I am petrified of heights! lol... I had to close my eyes through most of this. What I did see was beautiful.
Wow thanks for stopping by!🫶🏻🙌😁
WOW. Gorgeous scenery, of course, but as someone who has a severe fear of heights this freaks me out more even than riding something at Magic Mountain or Cedar Point.
😁👍Thank you so much ❤️It was a little scary 😁
I felt the same as you on the tram in Chattanooga.
@@lindabradford9591 the Chattanooga choochoo haha glad to see I'm not the only one terrified of heights and I'm a man. Can't be helped I guess. They say face your fears to overcome them. Nope to that one that will not work sorry no no. haha.
This not a roller coaster! It's a funicular , many all around Switzerland, a great experience and not to be missed. Stunning scenery.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
What an awesome trip. I can't imagine if it really was a roller coaster on that grade :-) it would be the world's greatest thrill ride!
Thanks for watching 😁👍
It would also be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, because, as you know, no rider would ever survive the trip if it was a true roller coaster!
Stunning scenery wouldn't go on it ,but thanks for showing it 😍 love Switzerland my favourite place 😍
Thank you so much! 😁👍❤️All the best!🫶🏻
Absolutely Stunning mountains, and the coaster that takes you up the mountain looks scary, but fun.
And not to mention that lake has the greenest water I have ever seen 💚💚💚
Wow Thank you so much ❤️Nice comment 🌺🔥All the best 🙌
Beautiful colour lake... blue lake is so beautiful 😍
Thanks for watching ❤️

I was all the time wondering how would this crackling train make that drop. Glad nothing like that was involved.
The trolley conductor has one of the coolest jobs ever, let's just hope there are no mountain lions near 😁
It's true, just ride all day😁😁😁👍Thanks!
