Åre Bergbana
Åre bergbana
A wooden-cabin funicular opened in 1910. It is one of the few mountain railways of this kind left in Sweden and still carries skiers today.
The Åre Bergbana is a ground-level cable railway about 800 meters long. It climbs from near the square up to the area of Fjällgården. It is one of the only mountain cable railways in Sweden, and its red cars have remained almost unchanged for a century. Today it mainly serves skiers in the snow season, and a lift pass is all you need to ride it. It is a great way to experience the early history of Åre as a resort. Summer operating hours are limited, so check the official website.
