Funicolare di Montecatini – Montecatini Terme Funicular, Tuscany, Italy.

MONTECATINI FUNICULAR
Known in Italian as the Funicolare di Montecatini, Montecatini Funicular is the best way to get from Montecatini Terme to the medieval village of Montecatini Alto.

Originally constructed in 1898 the funicular is a great family activity providing spectacular panoramic views across Montecatini Terme. The funicular has been modernised over the years but all the original workings are still visible and the red carriages have not been modified.

The two red cable-operated carriages run regularly throughout the day ascending and descending the steep hill to Montecatini Alto in just under 10 minutes. The carriages run in opposite directions along the 1077 metre track passing for a brief greeting halfway along the route.

Getting on the red trains, Gigio & Gigia, is the most romantic, nostalgic, romantic and above all pleasant way to admire the entire Montecatini valley and reach the village of Montecatini Alto.

Once at the top enjoy a leisurely stroll around Montecatini Alto perhaps enjoying a glass of wine or dining at one of the restaurants.
