About this audio guide
This guide to the Tegelbergbahn cable car above Schwangau, near Füssen, follows the one person aboard who is actually at work: the cable car operator, riding the upper cabin on a busy summer afternoon in August 2011, with paragliders circling the mountain. Along the way it reaches the mountain rescue crews, police and Red Cross teams whose job is the ground beneath the line. Best heard at the valley station, looking up at the cables.
