The price is currently 4000 HUF. That includes the fee for travel in both directions. There is no such thing as a one-way ticket, meaning that you need to pay this fee no matter if you want to travel only one direction. The children’s ticket is 2000 HUF (3-14 years).
Is it worth it? The trip lasts for approximately 90 seconds. A similar funicular in Zagreb that lasts for 60 seconds is priced at 0,6 euros (which is 300 HUF). Honestly, I don’t think it is worth it, I’d rather use my legs and skip the line and reach the top faster, with more money left in my wallet, and I even burnt some calories in the process.
The funicular operates between 8.00 and 22.00.
