The Triftbahn is a small cable car bringing hikers up to the starting point of the hike to the Trift glacier and suspension bridge hike.

⚠️This cable car is being renovated and will not reopen until end of June 2025 at the earliest. The timetable and ticket info may be differ after the reopening. Learn more.

Location: Sustenstrasse, 3863 Gadmen • from Interlaken, 45 min drive
bus stop Nessental, Triftbahn - from Interlaken 1h10 by train + bus

Open: usually end of June to late October • daily 8:00 - 17:00

Tickets:

Best to book in advance to reserve a specific timeslot. No refunds or exchanges. No discount with any travel passes.

When buying your return ticket, you select a fixed Up time and Down time. I would give yourself at least 4 hours at the top.

You must pick up your tix 15 mins before your Up time or you forfeit the tix. If you miss your Down time, ask if there are any open Down times left. If not, you are out of luck and must hike down.

Dogs over height of 30 cm need a ticket (child's price).
