5
stars
for
the
unique
experience
of
seeing
children
operating
a
railway.
The
trip
itself
is
relaxing,
sitting
inside
an
old
train
passing
through
the
forest.
There
are
extra
activities
to
do
in
the
area,
like
taking
the
Zupliget
(Libego)
chair
lift
or
hiking
in
the
forest
by
getting
off
the
train.
We
didn't
do
research
before
visiting
so
there
were
a
few
things
that
we
wished
we
had
known
earlier
to
get
a
better
experience.
We
started
at
the
Huvösvölgy
station
by
purchasing
adult
2x-trip
ticket
(1400HUF,
1x-trip
is
800HUF)
with
cash
(only)
to
the
children
manning
the
booth.
The
first
kid
didn't
understand
English,
but
another
does,
but
was
not
able
to
help
us
with
the
questions
of
where
and
how
to
get
to
the
chair
lift
station.
We
bought
the
2x
ticket
thinking
the
train
stop
was
connected
to
the
lower
chair
lift
station
and
we'd
need
to
get
back
to
town
by
the
same
way
we
reached
Huvösvölgy.
This
is
not
the
case.
The
rail
trip
can
be
started
from
either
Huvösvölgy
or
Széchenyihegy
station,
or
maybe
even
at
any
stop
as
you
can
buy
ticket
directly
(cash
only)
on
board.
The
higher
chair
lift
station
is
reachable
from
the
Jánoshegy
stop
with
a
10min
slight
incline
hike.
When
we
visited
there
was
only
a
RETURN
ticket
option
sold
from
machines
that
cost
2000HUF.
There
is
a
ticket
counter
but
it
was
closed.
We
didn't
take
the
return
trip
because
the
view
is
nicer
from
the
top
going
down,
and
there
is
a
convenient
bus
291
at
the
bottom
of
the
lower
station
that
goes
directly
to
town.
Alternatively
we
could
have
taken
the
chair
lift
back
up,
hop
back
into
the
train
and
return
to
either
Huvösvölgy/Széchenyihegy
station.
This
could
easily
be
a
half
day
activity
combining
train
ride,
chair
lift,
and
hiking
around
the
forest.
