Puffing Billy Railway - Belgrave

All aboard for a journey back in time on the Puffing Billy Railway, Australia’s iconic century-old steam train. Winding its way through the magnificent Dandenong Ranges from its main station in Belgrave, this heritage railway offers a truly magical experience for the whole family, with the charming chug of the engine and the whistle echoing through the lush fern gullies.

The main attraction is the ride itself in the beautiful open-side carriages, where you can dangle your legs over the side for an exhilarating and nostalgic trip. The journey features breathtaking views, including the crossing of the famous Trestle Bridge. It’s a sensory adventure, from the smell of steam to the cool mountain air.

It’s a perfect screen-free day out that captivates children of all ages, especially little train enthusiasts. The gentle pace and stunning scenery make it an accessible way to immerse the family in nature without a big hike. It creates lasting memories and is a wonderful activity to share with visiting grandparents for a multi-generational adventure.
