Little Steam Train of Forest, Tourist train in Forest, Belgium

The Little Steam Train of Forest is a pleasure railway that carries passengers in scaled-down steam locomotives through the woodland region. The route passes through varying terrain and operates with functional systems modeled on traditional railway technology.

The train began operating around the 1950s as a project by railway enthusiasts in the Forest area. It has since become an established part of local heritage, connecting people with railway history.

The train is operated by passionate volunteers who share their love for historic railways with visitors. You encounter a community devoted to keeping this hands-on experience alive for both locals and travelers.

The facility has a train station with ramps, parking, and restroom facilities for convenient arrival and departure. Wear weather-appropriate clothing, as portions of the journey take place outdoors.

The elevated sections of track offer surprising views of the surrounding forest that you cannot see from ground level. This shifted perspective changes with each season and time of day, making every ride feel different.

The best unusual activities in Brussels

Brussels has built a lively scene of indoor activities that go well beyond typical tourism. You'll find everything from axe throwing and climbing walls to karaoke bars and flight simulators scattered throughout the city. These places let you try something new without worrying about weather or crowds. Whether you want to test your nerve throwing axes, race through physical challenges, or spend an evening answering trivia questions with friends, the city offers plenty of ways to spend your time doing something different. Many of these venues turn unusual activities into social experiences. You can climb inside a converted church at a climbing center, sing in themed karaoke rooms, or solve puzzles under time pressure in escape-style games. Some places focus on skill and precision, like axe throwing under trained supervision, while others emphasize teamwork and problem-solving. A few combine both physical and mental challenges, making them good options whether you're visiting with family, friends, or coworkers. What makes these activities special is how they're set up. Indoor obstacle courses span multiple floors with different difficulty levels. Flight simulators let you take the controls of real aircraft with an instructor watching over you. Museums with interactive exhibits turn abstract ideas about math and science into things you can actually try. Even simple activities like roller skating happen in spaces designed to feel fun and different from everyday life. You can spend hours at any of these places or just drop by for an hour—the choice is yours.
