All aboard for an out-of-the-ordinary journey aboard the mythical steam train des Pignes. Seated in vehicles over a hundred years old, you’ll be rocked to the rhythm of the last century.
Our favorite: themed trains
Full steam ahead, windows open, breathe in the scents of the forest or open spaces. You’ll have time to admire olive and chestnut groves. Passing through viaducts and tunnels, the locomotive takes you from Puget-Théniers to Entrevaux, as far as Annot, and sometimes as far as Le Fugeret. A feeling of time travel, taken from a Western film, a magical moment shared with family and friends, sure to delight young and old alike.
Take a step back in time with the steam locomotive.

An experience for all, that will revive the memories of the oldest and excite the imagination of the youngest.

The steam train is not the only one to travel the line. Today, the cars on the regular line are modern and comfortable. Schoolchildren, workers and travellers in search of nature. The proud, up-to-date red and orange railcar whistles cheerfully at stations along the line from Nice to Digne-les-Bains.
