The unique technical monument of Orava Forest Railway is one of the very few narrow-gauge switchback railways preserved to this day. Its original purpose was to transport timber from inaccessible mountainous terrain, however, now it is one of the most popular tourist attractions of the Orava region. The sightseeing trains of Orava Forest Railway depart from Tanečník Station, near the village of Oravská Lesná. The station is connected with the village by a 6 km asphalt side-road. At the station, free parking is provided. The train depot, train ticket office, souvenir shop, exhibition documenting the evolution of the railway, children playground or peacock aviary are also located at the station.
