Description

Monte Igueldo, in Donostia (Donostia/San Sebastián), is home to one of the most distinctive historic leisure complexes in the Basque Country. The funicular, with over a hundred years of history, climbs the hillside in wooden carriages just as it did when it carried guests to the early twentieth-century casino and ballroom. At the top, the Amusement Park, open since 1912, still operates with its original attractions and iconic elements. In 2014, both the funicular and the park were declared a Monumental Site, a recognition of their cultural and heritage value. Beyond the rides, the mountain offers exceptional panoramic views over La Concha bay and the city. The combination of heritage, landscape and entertainment makes Monte Igueldo a stop with its own identity within any itinerary through Donostia.
