Facilities

We have seven undercover picnic shelters available which can be accessed from about 11:00am onwards. These shelters are very popular and you can reserve a shelter for the day. The fee is $55 to reserve a shelter. Ride tickets can be purchased on the day. Please note that the booking fee is non-refundable. Reservations can be made by filling out our reservation contact form below.

You can bring your own portable gazebos to use in our picnic area. Please ensure that your gazebo can be pegged down securely as it can sometimes be quite windy at Bulla Hill Miniature Railway. You may bring along extra tables and chairs if you wish.

 

Bare feet are not allowed on our trains
