Took my family along with my parents to Walhalla. Mum and Dad are in there last seventies. We had a perfect day with beautiful weather. The staff at the station where all very freindly and helpful. The train left on time and the trip was breath taking with lovely views. While the track runs along side the river it is very naroow and with many sharp curves. The trip takes 40 minutes one way with the whole trip taking almost 2 hours return.
Great train ride i think adults enjoy this as much as the kids. It travels through some beautiful bush & its a credit to the wonderful volunteers who keep it running.
a hour trip 20min each way plus 20min stop over , bring your own water refreshments , sit on far side of train to get the best view of the valleys
Good quick trip of about 20 minutes then about 20 minutes before the train returns long enough for small kids not to get to bored good scenery all about you can even take the family pet for a ride
The scenery is stunning especially through the gorge & up over the Thomson River. The staff, who are all volunteers, are friendly & informative. Well worth a visit
I loved the railway as it followed the creek to Thompson river nestled into the side of the mountain. A 20 minute journey to Thomson then a 20min wait while we skimmed stones underneath the bridge the back again. Ensure you sit on the river side of the train to enjoy the views otherwise its a little boring staring at a rock wall.
It's a cute little railway but the star of the show is the deep gorge through which it runs. Spectacular scenery and a fun way to spend an hour or so.
Cute little restored old world train, with several carriages that follows the stream for about 30 minutes each way. Staffed by volunteers, they do an exceptional job with genuine reproduction tickets, and conductors aboard to tell the local history.
Had a terrific return train ride from walhalla to Thompson River. Friendly staff and a really enjoyable trip this lovely terrain. An hour for the return trip leaving 3 times a day on weekends (11am, 1pm and 3pm), except during winter when the 3pm doesnt run
Young, old, family, couple or solo, this is a great experience. The train takes 30 minutes to travel from Walhalla to Thomson along a wonderfully restored track over numerous bridges and through the bush, following Stringer's Creek. The volunteers clearly love their work and they do a great job.
