Ecological Forest Train
For the movement of visitors throughout the area around the falls we have made one of our most innovative additions to the park: an ecological train which runs on natural gas.



Home > Activities > Ecological Forest Train



The Ecological Forest Train is used as alternative transportation and is powered by gas – a system without environmental impact. It was created exclusively for this Park; its design takes into account the special characteristics of the weather and the surrounding leafy nature. The train is roofless, for the visitor to be in direct contact with the environment and to live the experience of a ride in the middle of the forest, perceiving the aromas, weather changes and the sound of the wood. The train travels at 20 km/12 miles per hour in order to avoid running over an animal and it is powered by liquated petroleum gas for a lower environmental impact. The train can accommodate 50 passengers per coach.

It was brought specially from England where it was designed by Alan Keef Ltd., a company which specializes in excursion trains and has built highly successful transports for parks throughout Asia and Europe.

Technical information: fauna corridors, biodegradable oil, engine wash system, railroads maintenance, facilitate transportation; the new railroad plan used the old road safeguarding the biggest trees.
