    A bizarre activity but great fun nonetheless. Now with an electric booster on the handlebar of the wagon to help when you feel a little weary. Our kids loved it

    Brilliant fun for the whole family. Must be booked by phone, but luckily the lady answering spoke English, saving me a Google translate attempt. Also able to pay with card, despite what the website said. All in all a great day out

    Very good activity with friends. We had a great time. Rigolade sitting. The rail bike is electrically assisted which makes it not too difficult. In a rural setting, not much to see on the landscape...
