A real treasure lies hidden in the wild and romantic Schwarzatal valley: the Thuringian mountain railroad. It is the only mountain railroad that can transport standard-gauge passenger and freight cars and not only makes the hearts of railroad fans beat faster, but also nature lovers get their money's worth. In the summer months, you can enjoy the 1.4 km long route with a gradient of 25 % in an open carriage, breathe in the fresh air and listen to the birdsong. Visitors can also discover the Fürstenkutsche, the Maschinarium adventure museum, the Fröbelwald and, in the summer months, the Olitätenwagen.
