Anten–Gräfsnäs Railway

The Anten-Gräfsnäs Railway is a restored railway line between two villages featuring vintage trains and original station buildings. The route connects these communities with carefully maintained tracks that run through the surrounding landscape.

The line opened around 1900 as part of a larger network connecting the region to major cities. It served as an important route for moving goods and people through the area.

Local volunteers operate and maintain the restored trains and equipment that visitors can see in action. The railway shows how railway work functioned and what skills were needed for daily operations.

Train rides operate mainly during warmer months, so visitors can enjoy the journey in comfortable conditions. Both endpoints have museums and attractions nearby, making it easy to spend a full day in the area.

A locomotive built in 1911 still runs on the same tracks it served over a century ago. This working steam engine is a rare example of a machine that continues to operate in its original setting.
