Zakopane funicular, Poland


The 1298 metre long funicular from Zakopane to Gubalowka was built in 1938 at the mountain resort town of Zakopane in preparation for the FIS Ski World Cup to be held there in 1939, at the base of the Polish Tatras (see earlier post).  It rises from  823 metres (2,700 ft) above sea level at the bottom station to 1122 metres (3,681 ft) at the top.  website
