Children's Railway accounts for being one of the unique attracts and is also one of the best places to visit in Budapest. The railway is run by trained children and has everything a normal railway line has - ticket offices, diesel locomotives, signals, switches and a timetable - just that, it is run completely by children!
Stretching among the magnificent Buda Hills from Szechenyihegy to Huvosvolgy, it crosses the Cogwheel Railways and serves Normafa along with Janoshegy, known for being the highest point of the city. On selected days of the week, steam locomotives also operate on this line. The journey is an exclusive experience for both children and adults and takes approximately 40-45 minutes.
