Daylesford Railway

Daylesford Railway invites visitors on a nostalgic journey back in time aboard restored vintage railmotors. Departing from the beautifully preserved 1882 heritage station in Daylesford, the train glides through rolling farmland before entering the lush eucalyptus forests of the Central Victorian Highlands.

The scenic nine-kilometre route gently climbs to Bullarto, Victoria's highest operating railway station, where passengers can step into a tranquil forest setting and breathe in the fresh air and take in the magnificent historic station at Bullarto. With windows open to the rustling leaves and natural scents of the bush, the ride offers a relaxing escape filled with charm, living history, and the peaceful beauty of the region.

Popular with families, couples and train enthusiasts alike, this volunteer-run heritage experience captures the romance of country rail travel in Victoria's Heartland and pairs perfectly with a wander through the vibrant Daylesford Sunday Market that bustles alongside the station.
