2.00It was okay. The only thing that you can do is look over the city. There is one restaurant and a museum and that's it. You can buy the ticket for the zoo that is a station before the Hungerberg. We went yesterday and it was really overcrowded.You can also buy the ticket to the top of Innsbruck but in my opinion it was a bit too much almost 100€ for two people. I wish there would be more to see but it is what it is.
Hungerburg trip

4.00We took the Nordkette cable car to Hungerburg from Innsbruck. There was no wait. The car takes approximately 75 people at a time in 5 or 6 separate cabins. There is no step free access at Hungerburg so you will need to carry any chairs etc. The view from there was great. Toilets available near the top.
Fantastic a must do!!

5.00Our trip to the top of Innsbruck was unforgettable. The breathtaking views of the city left us in awe. Relaxing on deckchairs and watching the vibrant activity around us made the experience even more special. Truly, it was the highlight of our Innsbruck adventure. We arrived early so it wasn't overcrowded and managed to get some fantastic pictures.
Amazing views and fantastic snow

5.00A great trip to the Top of Innsbruck. Free mini tobogganing and great views all round. Something you definitely have to do if visiting Innsbruck. Worth getting the Innsbruck card which includes this.
A must in Innsbruck

3.00If you are in Innsbruck then you must have done this. In a short time, 3 separate cable cars take you to the top of Innsbruck. Go early because later in the day it gets crowded and only a limited number of people can come at a time. We were unlucky that it was foggy after the 2nd cable car but still enjoyed the earlier view from the cable car. However, it is not cheap.
Worth it for views

4.00Quick line with advance ticket going up great views and cute town Harder to get back down - longer line and packed. To get to top and best views need to do next ride on nordkette
Winter visit - scenary, snow sports

5.00Definitely worth the visit with stunning views from the top of Innsbruck. It was snowing in mid December and families could take part in free sledding activities offered at Seeberger (the penultimate peak) or enjoy the heavy snow at the Hungerburg summit. Ski lifts at Seeberger were closed at this time as the snow was not sufficiently heavy, but check the Nordkette website for live updates on weather conditions.

4.00The ticket is expensive (56€) and long as it includes a train and two funiculars. There's plenty of waiting time if everything goes well. In our case there was a technical problem and we had an hour-long break without anyone giving us any information. Bad organization. Once upstairs the views are amazing. In winter you can not walk much through the snow and ice but it is really worth the views of the city and the mountain range. We climb on a very clear day.
