Nerobergbahn runs again
The Nerobergbahn has been on winter break since November 3, 2025. During the winter months, all routine maintenance work will be carried out in order to be ready to run again in time for the start of the season on April 3, 2026.
The Nerobergbahn is the oldest rack-and-pinion cableway in Germany powered by water ballast. As a funicular, its speed is regulated by a hand brake and the drive is based on gravity using water ballast. It has been taking guests up the Neroberg in just three and a half minutes since 1888.
Travel times & tickets
The Nerobergbahn runs daily from April to November from 9 am to 7 pm at 15-minute intervals. A combined ascent and descent costs six euros for adults and 3.50 euros for children between the ages of six and 14. A ten-ticket for the entire season is also available: adults pay 45 euros, children 25 euros. There are also attractive tickets for families and groups, such as the family ticket or the group ticket (for ten or more people). It is easy to get there by taking bus line 1 from Wiesbaden main station to the "Nerotal" terminus.
