Après visité original de la miné avec guidé sympa
Le trajet serpente entre montagne, forêt et viaducs. La vue est souvent spectaculaire offrant des points de vue sur le vallée et le très beau lac de Montenard et ses eaux turquoises.
Le petit train est activé par une équipe de passionnés. Tout le long du parcours nous profitons des commentaires fouillés et très complets sur l'histoire du train, dé la région et surtout de la l'activité de la mine d' anthracite.
Le parcours dure presque une heure en traversant 5 tunnels et enjambant 3 viaducs.
Par beau temps il est possible d'embarquer dans des wagons ouverts. Sinon, les wagons fermés offrent des banquettes en velours rouge très confortables.
Restaurant très bon on s'est régalés..tout est fait maison.
