Description

Head out on a fun rail-trolley adventure on the Trelänsbanan right in the heart of nature. Rentals are available in Degerfors and Gullspång not in Konsterud (=Kristinehamn).

You can pedal a rail bike between Degerfors – Kristinehamn – Gullspång – Torrved, and the total distance is 65 km. Once upon a time, steam locomotives puffed along here, carrying passengers and goods. More recently, rail buses whizzed through the spruce forest, stopping at the red-painted station houses. For over a hundred years, Nora Bergslags Railway was a vital transport link in southeastern Värmland. Now, no steam whistles blow. Stationmasters, station workers, and the life that was tied to the railway are gone. But thanks to voluntary efforts, you can now experience the old railway in a new way.
