BASQUE COUNTRY | The Bilbao Funiculars | New York Euskadi TV 🇺🇸

Bilbao / Euskadi. The Larreineta Funicular has been an integral part of the Basque landscape since its inauguration in 1926. The Larreineta Funicular opened to join the mining town of La Arboleda with San Salvador del Valle.
Originally constructed to facilitate the transportation of goods and people between the charming town of Larreineta and its neighboring areas, the funicular quickly became a beloved icon of the region. Its rich history is intertwined with the socio-economic development of the area, reflecting the resilience and ingenuity of the Basque people. The journey is now just a 10-minute trip, but before the funicular was built it took an hour and a half, making this essential for miners living in the town of La Arboleda.
The Artxanda funicular, located in Bilbao, in the heart of the Basque Country, is much more than just a means of transport. It is a real experience that offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city and its surroundings. Inaugurated in 1915, this historic funicular connects the Casco Viejo district in central Bilbao to the top of Artxanda Hill. Climbing aboard its cabins offers passengers a unique opportunity to discover the picturesque charm of Bilbao from above.
