Mountain railway Gletscherexpress & Wildspitzbahn

St. Leonhard im Pitztal

The Glacier Express transports guests - like a subway train - through a tunnel in the mountain to 2,840 meters above sea level. There you can change to the Wildspitzbahn, Austria's highest gondola lift. It travels up to an altitude of 3,440 meters above sea level.

We recommend because:

  • ...the view from the mountain station of the Wildspitze, the highest mountain in North Tyrol, and the many other three thousand meter peaks is simply sensational
  • ...a visit to Café 3.440, perched on the summit like a designer UFO, is an incomparable experience
  • ...the "Glacier Cinema" near the mountain station always has the best program
