From my own experience, I highly recommend family trips on the Öchsle Railway, as well as the Railway Adventure Day. The Öchsle Railway staff are very professional, and you get a fascinating insight into the operation of a railway.

The Öchsle cycle path passes the former Wennedach train station here. An information board gives you a good insight into the history of the place.
