2. Strike it rich!
Step back in time to the gold rush era at Sovereign Hill in Ballarat. For a bit of adventure, go down the Red Hill Mine and experience the life of the miners in their pursuit of gold. A unique fun adventure and who knows, maybe you just find your nest of gold nuggets. Worth a trip for old and young, fund for the whole family

3. Ride a steam train
Take a nostalgic ride on the Puffing Billy - the world's oldest steam train - as it winds its way through the verdant Dandenong Ranges. A train ride as our grand and great grand parents did
