Fahrt mit dem Vulkan-Expreß

A trip with the Brohltalbahn is more than just a train ride. It is pure everyday deceleration, a true experience of technology and nature. It brings the volcanic region of Laacher See with its unique volcanic landscape to life and gives a sense of the "effort" it takes the locomotives to overcome around 400 meters in altitude between the Rhine and Eifel. Step on board and experience a unique narrow-gauge railway in the attractive landscape of the Eastern Eifel!

On the nearly 18 km long narrow-gauge railway from Brohl am Rhein to Engeln in the Eifel, our train crosses several high viaducts and passes through a nearly 100-meter long tunnel. Almost 400 meters of elevation are overcome! On most days, our trains are pulled by green/beige painted diesel locomotives. Experience how our locomotives must unleash all their power on the steep section between Oberzissen and Engeln to bring the train to its destination on time! On selected days, we regularly additionally deploy our historic steam locomotive "11sm".
