The funicular from the old world warps you back into time to this dated amusement park. You will be disappointed if you expect breathtaking G-force attractions, so if that's the main goal of your visit, you'd better do something else. But if you like the nostalgic feel of an old school amusement park, combined with an amazing view over San... More

We really enjoyed the walk and the ride up. I think you might have to be British to enjoy the fun fair park, certainly it brought back memories of rainy days in Southend, and seemed totally out of place with a totally sophisticated town! We loved the views and the experience! More

It was fun walking from one end of de la concha to the other end. Good 50 minutes work out. Take the funicular cable car up and enjoy the top mountain view. Very refreshing. However, the fun fair park is like a eye sore. Not necessary. More

Take the funicular up for only a coupe of euros, enjoy the views and relax before heading back down to the beach! More

My girlfriend and I decided to go up Monte Igueldo after visiting Combs of the Wind. The two are in close proximity to each other and make for a good half-day activity. In order to access Monte Igueldo, just follow the path/boardwalk that lines "Playa de la Ondarreta". The path curves around the beach and leads right to the Combs... More

Funicular ride up mountain was fun. We had a lovely time on the old roller coaster, the dodgems and the boats - we would have stayed longer but most of it shut for 2hrs at lunchtime - only in Spain! My 10yr old loved it. Not sophisicated, but good old-worlde charm. More

I made the trek up the funicular little train alone and in the pouring rain, and it was SO worth it! I wasn't actually visiting the theme park (it looked a little run down), I just went up for the view after hearing so many good things about it. Definitely worth it, and if I remember correctly it was only... More
