Walhalla Railway Family Adventure

Spend an enjoyable day out with the family at Walhalla Goldfields Railway.

Boarding at Walhalla Station take in the breathtaking views as the train winds it’s way through the spectacular Stringer’s Gorge on what is considered one of the country’s most picturesque rail journeys.

With the track winding it’s way through the gorge you pass Happy Creek Station, crossing seven bridges you will marvel at this feat of engineering.

Then just before Thomson Station you cross the eighth and most spectacular Thomson River Bridge.

Upon arrival at Thomson Station passengers disembark and have the opportunity to peruse the station and surroundings before re-boarding for the return journey.

For young train buffs we also offer a Ride in the Cab giving them the opportunity to experience the amazing trackwork and bridges from a different perspective as well as chat to our knowledgeable crew.

Upon arrival back in Walhalla make sure you visit Walhalla’s Goods Shed Café at the station.

Trains operate daily from 26th December until 12th January during the summer school holidays.

Bookings can be made at: www.walhallarail.com.au

Phone 5165 6280 for further information.
