SCENIC TRAIN RIDES THROUGH THE SIERRA NATIONAL FOREST

Reserve your tickets online today!

Ride into history where powerful locomotives once hauled massive log trains through the Sierra Mountains, where mighty lumberjacks felled the timber, and flumes carried lumber to the distant valley below. The Sierra National Forest’s majestic woods provide the backdrop for this narrow-gauge journey back in time. All train rides are wheelchair accessible. Friendly dogs are always welcome on a leash.
