Pošumavská jižní dráha, Heritage railway in Stožec, Czech Republic

The Pošumavská jižní dráha operates along a 105-meter track crossing the Czech-German border through the dense forests of the Šumava region.

Built in the late 19th century for timber transport, this railway line transformed into a tourist attraction connecting Nové Údolí and Stožec.

The railway museum displays historic photographs, models of the Nové Údolí settlement, and exhibits highlighting regional railway development.

Visitors can ride replicas of steam locomotives or pedal draisines during summer months, with voluntary admission fees and parking facilities available.

This railway holds the distinction of being the shortest international railway in the world, situated at the state border between Czech Republic and Germany.
