Efteling Steamtrack Line

The Efteling Steamtrack Line is a narrow-gauge railway that winds through the theme park, connecting different fantastical sections together. The train departs from two stations and carries passengers on a scenic journey through various themed areas of the park.

Train service began in the late 1960s using a steam locomotive that had been built a century earlier in an industrial factory. This heritage engine has been running continuously since its arrival at the park and has logged countless journeys.

The carriages and stations feature design elements created by renowned illustrator Anton Pieck that give the ride a storybook character. Throughout your journey, you notice the thoughtful craftsmanship that blends the park's heritage with today's attractions.

The ride is best enjoyed during quieter periods when you can board easily and take in the surroundings at a leisurely pace. Watch for the station announcements so you know when the train arrives at your boarding point.

The locomotive running here is one of the last coal-fired steam engines in the region and represents genuine industrial heritage. Its ability to still carry passengers daily makes it a working museum that visitors can actually experience.
