Furka Cogwheel Steam Railway & goats

Furka Cogwheel Steam Railway with goats

With the 100-year-old locomotive number 9, the train journey starts in Realp and runs 18 kilometres through one of the most beautiful Alpine valleys in Switzerland. We don’t board into the train with the goats, but take them on a smooth hike where the spectacular Furka mountain line for the cogwheel steam train starts. We can marvel passing steam train from a good photo spot. With this offer you can combine the adventure with goats and experiencing the nostalgic steam train.

See this document for more information about the steam railway & Furka mountain line. Our goats were also honoured to be film stars in this film 😉 Here is a link to the film: “Spectacular mountain railways in Switzerland: Furka mountain line – the cosy one“.
