Capri Funicular
About
The Capri Funicular, inaugurated in 1907, is a historic trolley line that climbs the steep hills of the island, linking the bustling Marina Grande with the serene Piazza Umberto I. Traversing a 670‑metre track that includes a short tunnel and a soaring viaduct, the two-car system offers passengers sweeping panoramas of the Bay of Naples. Trains run every fifteen minutes from early morning until late evening, making it a reliable mode of transport and a scenic attraction in its own right. Whether you’re heading to a beach, exploring the town centre, or simply enjoying the view, the funicular provides a quick and memorable journey up the cliffs of Capri.
