The Velorail Experience
Velorail is a unique, fun and inclusive outdoor activity that brings users through the rural hinterland of Kiltimagh on the old Rail Track. User groups have their own Railbike and will depart the refurbished Kiltimagh Station and travel either North or South experiencing all that goes on in a rural area as they do so.
Railbikes are designed to accommodate all members of a family or other group regardless of their ability so long as there are at least two reasonably fit adults to pedal the bikes.
Assisted by our friendly staff, your group will board your Railbike at the restored Kiltimagh Station. Under your own steam, your group will propel yourselves using pedal power over either the North or South route. Our Staff will be part of the group departing Kiltimagh Station and will be on hand at all times to assist with any needs you may have.
Velorail is an outdoor recreation to be undertaken at a leisurely pace. It’s not a sprint. Velorail is ideal for family groups, groups of friends, groups of work colleagues and lends itself ideally to corporate team building trips, sports teams undertaking team bonding sessions, and pretty much all other groups where a group activity is desirable.
Velorail is a physical activity that requires a moderate level of physical activity. We require each group to have at least two adults, one over 18 years to take the role of “lead rider” and one over 16 years both of whom must have a reasonable level of fitness to be able to propel the Railbike over the duration of the route.
We offer three different Railbike types including those which are adapted to safely carry a standard wheelchair, making Velorail a truly inclusive activity.
