The Burgberg Cable Car was built in 1929 by the Bleichert engineering corporation and has a length…read moreof 481 metres. Up to 18 people per gondola lift the cable car to the summit in three minutes and for a minimal fee is much easier than hiking up to the summit. You will have an impressive view of Bad Harzburg, the surrounding mountains and the vast Harz foothills. Although I am not a fan of heights, I enjoyed the ride. Cheers!
