The train is running, the park is closed. Parc del Castell de l'Oreneta is shut under the Collserola African swine fever measures, so the playgrounds are off limits. The mini-train is still open, reached only from Passatge de la Blada, per trenoreneta.com.
What you need to know
- Mini-train on Sunday mornings, 10:30 to 13:30, closed in August and in bad weather
- €3 per ride, cash only and bought at the little station on the day, under 2s free
- Uphill walk through the woods to reach the playgrounds and train, so wear comfortable shoes
- Trains are still running despite temporary park closures
About
A 17-hectare hilltop forest park whose star for kids is the Tren de l'Oreneta, a working miniature railway run by volunteers since the early 1980s. Children ride real scale-model trains, often steam-hauled, along a 636-meter track that winds through tunnels and over bridges on a ten-minute loop. The train runs Sunday mornings, weather permitting, with several playgrounds along the wooded paths.
