As part of a package tour we took the train from Mittersill to Krimml. The loco was well presented. The line followed the river in the valley as was very picturesque. Spent most of the time riding on the outside. Saw herons by the river. The steam train worked within the normal service trains. Well worth the trip.…

Dear Ian F, we are happy to hear that you enjoyed your ride with our locomotive. A ride with the nostalgic steam train is indeed a very special experience. Thanks so much for your lovely review :-) Best regards, your team from Pinzgauer Lokalbahn

We had a great day out setting out from Zell am See on this lovely narrow gauge railway - the travel was free using the Mobil card given to folks staying in Zell. We left the train at Mittersill a request stop and enjoyed coffee at a nice little café on the station platform. From the Station café we walked through the town to the National Park Centre (check for directions) and I can tell you that this place is a must see if you are in the area. After enjoying the National Park Centre we strolled back through the town to have another coffee and some home-made cake at the station café before enjoying another ride on the train back to Zell. A brilliant day out and the staff on the train are very helpful for example in telling you when you need to press the button for your station stop. We shall be going to Zell am See again next year and taking some more journeys on this great little train. Its worth looking at their website as lots of the station stops take you to something interesting including Krimml at the end of the line. Enjoy it we did!…

A Great sounding little narrow gauge steam train that we saw puffing out steam as our coach pulled into the station for us to board it. It was not ready to board and leave yet so we stood on the station watching the driver fill up the little green steam engine with water making it ready for the journey it was about to take, We didn't stand about long before we were joined by our lady driver of our husband and wife Shearings driver team who told us to all make our way to a carriage door and please stay together so she knew where we all were so when we got to the end of our journey we could all be reunited with our coach which would be waiting for us at the other end when we got there. This journey was very pretty and although we didn't rise high into the mountains as it had been described, it did travel at the same level so it didn't go down either. Again for a small fee they served hot chocolate, tea and coffee brought back to you in your seat, and then they returned to collect the empty cups so no need to throw them on the floor as I did look and notice there were no rubbish bins present in the carriage I could see. All in all another thing we enjoyed and recommend if you like steam trains. Thx for reading John & Sue Eastbourne UK…

Very friendly railway that gets you from Zell am Zee to the Krindl waterfalls via a connected bus and a short 10 minute walk.. Although perhaps not one of the world's great scenic railways, on a good weather day, it is a delight. The staff are very friendly and helpful and the schedule is frequent enough, even in Winter, to permit at least one en route stop as tickets are 'hop on/hop off'. As far as I could determine, parking at Zell am See bahnhof is limited to a maximum of 3 hours which will never be enough for a return journey. There is no nearby cheap parking so the best option is to park for free and start your journey at Tischlerhäusl which is the 2nd stop, just 1km away. The Lokalbahn also has a number of stops near various ski resorts which also have free parking.…

this was a beautiful ride through the Austrian countryside in the sunshine. the seats were very comfortable. When the conductor found out we were English she went and got a booklet for us - and even wrote down the times of our connecting bus service. Then I needed the loo - so she held the train at the next station so I could use the platform toilet! Lovely service - well done!…
