Fodor's Expert Review Funicular de Artxanda

For an easy and quick excursion, take a five-minute spin on the Artxanda Funicular, the railway that joins downtown Bilbao with the summit of Artxanda Mountain. The panorama from the hillsides of Artxanda is the most comprehensive view of Bilbao, and the summit also includes a park, hotel, sports complex, and several restaurants. The asadores, in particular, are excellent.
