    One of the big advantages of the trains in Switzerland, they run on time and one can count on a bus service meeting the train, either at the train station or a separate bus station immediately adjacent to the train station.

    The best idea is (provided you do not go with your own car) railway. They are rarely late and there are many connections, as Fribourg lies on the main route from Geneva to Bern and so on. Though there is public transport, I'd suggest a walk if it is not too far and you have some time to spare.

  • The best way to go from up to down Fribourg city is by funicular. Years ago communication problems were solve with this kind of transportation.

    If you find the going up and down rough then I would recommend taking the tourist train which takes you to all the historical sights. This gives you a panoramic view of the city http://www.fr.ch/ville-fribourg/presentation/panorama/default.htm

    The Societe du Funiculaire Neuveville - Saint-Pierre was established the 1897 April 22nd to link together the two areas of Fribourg: Neuveville and Saint-Pierre. The opening for the passengers was on 1899 February 4th. The funicular was managed by the Brasserie du Cardinal (brewery) from 1901 until 1965. In 1965, the city of Fribourg became the only shareholder of the company. In 1970, the city of Fribourg gave up the installations to the public transportation of the city (Transports en commun de Fribourg). The Transports en commun de Fribourg had the idea to renovate the funicular, to transform it into an electric funicular or an automatic one. Fortunately each time the project was gave up! Today the Funiculaire Neuveville - Saint-Pierre is exactly in the state as in 1899, same cabins, same kind of energy. Neuveville - Saint-Pierre is the last Swiss funicular with water counterbalanced energy. This kind of energy is now very rare in the funicular world. It is now a very a rare species. The real particularity of this funecular is the smell! It is using the sewage water of the city!!
