  • 5/5 Marios 3 years ago on Google
    One of the best themed parks of Greece. Very clean and big with plenty of trains, rails and wagons for kids to explore. Would definently recommend for families with small kids as well us for the rest for a nice stroll and relaxing time in Kalamata.

  • 4/5 Pavlos C. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very beautiful and well-kept park. Large enough to take a nice walk, with many trees offering shade during the day and adequately lit at night. Fountain and artificial stream flowing along the park. swings and other toys for children, and old train trains to complete the beautiful scenery and take you to another era. The only contradiction is the fact that many of the old wagons have been "vandalized". (Original) Πάρα πολύ όμορφο και προσεγμένο πάρκο. Αρκετά μεγάλο για να κάνει κανείς μια όμορφη βόλτα, με πολλά δέντρα που προσφέρουν σκιά τη μέρα και επαρκώς φωτισμένο το βράδυ. Συντριβάνι και τεχνητό ποταμάκι να ρέει κατά μήκος του πάρκου. κούνιες και άλλα παιχνίδια για τα παιδιά, και τους παλιούς συρμούς των τρένων να ολοκληρώνουν το όμορφο σκηνικό και να σε ταξιδεύουν σε μια άλλη εποχή. Η μοναδική παραφωνία, το γεγονός ότι πολλά από τα παλιά βαγόνια, έχουν υποστεί "βανδαλισμό".

    (Translated by Google) The human species is distinguished because it creates and evolves. OSE Park is a place of historical and emotional value for the people of Kalamata, a public heritage for future generations. The only one who could destroy such a place is just a HOME OF ERECT. We only shout when they take something like that from us to "protect" it. SAVE what reminds us of how we lived in the past. It will fill us with gratitude for what we have achieved so far as we have evolved. (Original) Το ανθρώπινο είδος διακρίνεται διότι δημιουργεί και εξελίσσεται. Το Πάρκο του ΟΣΕ είναι ένα μέρος με ιστορική και συναισθηματική αξία για τους ΚΑΛΑΜΑΤΙΑΝΟΥΣ, μια δημόσια κληρονομιά για τις επόμενες γενιές. Ο μόνος που θα μπορούσε να καταστρέφει ένα τέτοιο μέρος είναι μόνο ένας ΧΟΜΟ ΕΡΕΚΤΟΥΣ. Φωνάζουμε μόνο όταν μας παίρνουν κάτι τέτοιο για να το "προστατέψουν". ΣΩΣΤΕ αυτό που μας θυμίζει πως ζούσαμε στο παρελθόν. Θα μας γεμίζει με ευγνωμοσύνη για ότι έχουμε κατακτήσει μέχρι σήμερα καθώς εξελιχθήκαμε.

    all railway fans' hearts bleed here.D The former railway station in Kalamata, where some of the original locomotives are still standing, which have been rusting away since the closure of the railway. It is rare to find so many steam locomotives in one place as here. But it also shows you with a bit of a sad eye that every attempt to put the railway back into operation has unfortunately failed and that the entire network is slowly decaying. A pity, really. By the way, you can find former railway stations, tracks, road crossings and in many places the parked railway carriages and locomotives all over the Peloponnese.

    Really special sight in good location in Kalamata. Seldom one can find historic trains that’s approachable. Children and Grownups can get in the trains, climb on the trains and play in general. Really something unique…

  • 1/5 ΣΟΦΙΑ �. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) As a child I was scared many times when I walked it. I rarely visited it when my children were young, and today I ask them not to go through it. It is so big that it is definitely out of control. (Original) Σαν παιδί είχα φοβηθεί πολλές φορές όταν το περπατούσα .Σπάνια το επισκέφτηκα όσο ήταν τα παιδιά μου μικρά , και σήμερα τους παρακαλώ να μην περνάνε μεσα από αυτό. Είναι τόσο μεγάλο που σίγουρα είναι και ανεξέλεγκτο.

  • 5/5 Δημήτρης �. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) One of the best places I've ever been. The park is neat and very clean. Unfortunately, the same does not apply to trains because what the Greeks have done like their faces. This place hides a huge history. I hope the train in Kalamata will whistle soon. (Original) Από τα καλύτερα μέρη που πήγα ποτέ. Προσεγμένο το πάρκο και πολύ καθαρό. Δυστυχώς δεν ισχύει το ίδιο για τα τρένα διότι οι ελληνάρες τι έχουν κάνει σαν τα μούτρα τους. Κρύβει τεράστια ιστορία αυτό το μέρος. Μακάρι να σφυρίξει σύντομα το τρένο στην Καλαμάτα.

    Beautiful historical train park with three playgrounds and some fountains and paths for walking / biking; there's also a cafe / restaurant for a quick bite.

  • 4/5 Enrico B. 1 year ago on Google
    A very pleasant and in some way unique place just at the centre of the old railways station where old carriages are kept. The little taverna with outdoor tables is cosy and the food good. We tried also the meze and they were delicious. If you are in Kalamata, go there and you'll enjoy the food and the place

    Located in Kalamata, a beautiful coastal city in the southern part of the Peloponnese peninsula, the railway park is a charming park that is perfect for families, history enthusiasts, and railway lovers. The park is situated near the old railway station of Kalamata, which was once a significant hub for train travel in Greece. One of the main attractions of the park is the collection of old steam locomotives and carriages, which are on display for visitors to explore. The trains are beautifully restored, and visitors can get a real sense of what it was like to travel by train in Greece in the early 20th century. The park also has a small railway museum that provides visitors with an in-depth look at the history of railways in Greece. The exhibits include photographs, documents, and artifacts related to the development of the railway network in Greece. Aside from the historical aspect, the park is a lovely place to spend an afternoon. The lush greenery, beautiful flowers, and well-manicured lawns provide a tranquil and peaceful environment for visitors to relax and unwind. The park is also suitable for children, who can enjoy the playground and the small train ride around the park. Overall, the Kalamata municipal railway park is a fantastic attraction that offers visitors a unique and educational experience. Whether you are a history enthusiast or a lover of trains, this park is definitely worth a visit. The park is well-maintained, the exhibits are informative, and the atmosphere is relaxing and enjoyable.

    It is a great place, small forest in the center, for our dogs to socialise and do what they need. If the owners use it properly it can remain the best place in town for our daily dog walks !
