1.7 million passengers a year enjoy the ride on the fortress railway and look through the large panoramic window at the city of Salzburg during the 54-second journey.

Another nice day is therefore awaiting us with plenty of sunshine during the day, slowly increasing cloud in the afternoon and occasional thunderstorms in the evening.
