Ever wondered what it’d be like to ride through a railway tunnel?
Well here in the Gladstone region we have 6 of them!!!
The Boyne Burnett Inland Rail Trail (aka BBIRT) takes you through 6 tunnels, constructed 100 years ago and we bring to life the amazing effort, workmanship, tenacity, and vision which resulted in this rail connection being made.
We will bring to life the stories and history surrounding, not only the construction of the 6 tunnels and the track, but also the journeys the first nations people took through this area en-route to the Bunya Mountains and beyond, over the last 40,000 years.
Getting to the bottom of the hill (11 kms) is very easy, even for the most novice of riders, and for those who are keen to pedal off some more steam, can continue on to Builyan another 17 kms along the rail trail, where we will meet up for lunch and some ice-cold beers.
We have bike carrying capacity for 14 bikes and 18 passengers. We also have a limited number of loan bikes if you require to "borrow" one.
For those not wishing to ride, walk with us to the first 3 tunnels, returning to the bus, around 2.5km round trip, on a road meant for a train, so it's very easy walking.
The access road from Barimoon Siding has been made to suit those requiring assistance, making this experience very accessible
This experience commences at 8 am and returns to Gladstone around 4.00 pm
Good footwear and sun protection are recommended.
