Many people come here especially for this place. Apparently it's the backdrop for some scenes in a well-known fantasy series! If you can, get there off-peak so you will feel lost in a magical world.

Kids just love this place. It's not just the trains - you can explore woods and the brilliant tree-top adventure.
