Đường sắt

Tuyến đường sắt Tháp Chàm – Đà Lạt dài 84km được đưa vào khai thác từ năm 1932. Năm 1976, Bộ Giao thông – Vận tải đã tháo gỡ 21km đường ray trên tuyến đường này để khôi phục tuyến đường sắt Thống Nhất, từ đó tuyến đường này không còn hoạt động nữa và dần bị phá bỏ.

Hiện nay, ngành đường sắt đã khôi phục đoạn từ ga Đà Lạt đến Trại Mát dài 8km phục vụ du lịch.
