For an unforgettable family outing, look no further than Walhalla Goldfields Railway.
Sit back and enjoy breathtaking views as the train winds through the hillsides along the spectacular Stringers Creek George.
Taking about 1 hour and 20 minutes, the return trip is one of the country’s most picturesque rail journeys.
After departing the historic Walhalla train station, you will travel through the original station yards between Stringers Creek and the stunning cliff-face that underpins the old Brunton’s Bridge Road.
The journey then takes you along six large trestle bridges that criss-cross Stringers Creek, down a windy hill and through Happy Creek, before taking you over the stunning Thomson River Bridge.
The train then arrives at Thomson Station, where you disembark before reboarding for your return passage.
To make your trip extra special, add an experience to your ride.
The railway’s ‘Ride in the Cab’ is a great way for adults and kids to ride up front and see what the rail crew see including the amazing trackwork laid along the rocky ledges and dramatic cuttings.
Those aged 18+ can also be ‘Driver for the Day’ – no previous railway knowledge or experience is required.
