Lünersee & Lünerseebahn
Opening hours, prices & experiences
The Lünerseebahn cable car takes you from the valley station at the end of the Brandnertal valley to the mountain station at the Lünersee dam in just six minutes. 1,970 meters above sea level, you can expect not only fresh mountain air, but also the impressive Lünersee, one of the largest high mountain lakes in Vorarlberg and also the largest reservoir for power generation. When it was commissioned in 1958, the Lünersee plant was considered the most powerful pumped storage plant in the world. The lake covers around 112 hectares and holds up to 78.3 million cubic meters of water - a natural and technical jewel in the heart of the Rätikon.
