We took the TranzAlpine Express halfway to Aruthur's Pass! At the Pass we did two hikes, The Devil's Punch Bowl and The Bridal Path. The Devil's Punch Bowl is hard but beautiful!

After the two hikes you can having a late lunch in town and then keep warm in the local museum until the train comes back!
