Scenic World runs the steepest passenger railway in the world, plus a cableway and skyway across the Jamison Valley. A boardwalk loops through temperate rainforest and old coal mining relics at the bottom. A good wet-weather option because most of it is undercover or under canopy.

Good to know

  • Buy the unlimited pass if you want to ride everything
  • Walk the boardwalk first when it is quiet
