Timetable And Activities
Motivated by our fondness for railways and always seeking to make a train that is reminiscent of the small "narrow-gauge railways" rather than an amusement park, the Tren de Palau circulates offering a trip through nature with the vocation of providing a modest useful service.
The characteristics of the park, dictated by the lie of the land and the landscape, are ideally suited to this kind of train. A train that advances through this natural setting of a rustic nature, typically representative of the Vallès region, preserved thanks to the Town Council. The train is a convenient way of visiting the area. The runs are organised formally and carried out by members of the association on a voluntary basis.
The train is open to everyone on Sundays, almost every public holiday in the morning and optionally (if there are any members who want to carry on) during the afternoon, until twilight.
You can also reserve a special visit on a weekday.
The steam trains run subject to the availability of material and staff, but we try to guarantee as least the second and fourth Sundays of each month. When this is possible, trains pulled by coal steam locomotives run producing a true display of steam, smoke, smell and sound which, by stimulating your senses, transport you to another era.
