The Stanserhorn is a mountain in Switzerland, located in the canton of Nidwalden near the border with Obwalden, with the peak at 1,898 metres (6,227 ft) above sea level.

This was to be a new design, the world's first[7] "CabriO" double deck open top cable car, built by Garaventa.

The journey, on the original wooden funicular wagons, takes 9 minutes to the Kälti intermediate station (714 metres (2,343 ft) altitude).

The cable car closely follows the route of the original second and third stage funiculars, and the remains of the track and the Bluematt station can still be seen.

[6] The summit buildings include a self-service restaurant, three meeting/dining rooms, a souvenir shop, and a sun terrace and observation deck.

Ten lakes in total are visible: the Zugersee, Wichelsee, Vierwaldstättersee, Sempachersee, Sarnersee, Hallwilersee, Gerzensee, Bannalpsee, Baldeggersee and Alpnachersee.
