One of the greatest experience visiting the park and the visitor centre. There is a small museum which has great displays. There is no fee to visit the museum. Would have been a great place for kids. The cafe inside the visitor centre is amazing and usually gets very busy for the lunch on weekends. There is a railway track close to the visitor centre with Emerald Station for Puffing Billy within walking distance.
Good. Quite a lot of parking. Parking is paid though. $2/h, $6/d.
The model railway museum is definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful experience we had coming up on the Puffing Billy to this wonderful little lake and green grounds little paddle boats, a restaurant for drinks and food. And a beautiful gift ship and an array of large paintings available to buy. You will also see some birds.
There are many beautiful and exquisite animal-themed paintings inside, which are very beautiful. The interior wood decoration makes visitors relax, and there are also cute puppets in the gift shop.
Very modern facility, Awesome art work for sale . If I had $ would have brought the lot. Waited 30mins for our meal, Can say very busy. Would think about packing a pinic, So when you stop over on the puffy billy you actually get time to look at the surround. Felt as though we had missed out from having not much time once we ate and went to the toilet.
The main attraction was fantastic, however, the customer service and care for the people is severely lacking. My family and I were stranded for 2.5 hours at one of the stops in the rain after being told there will be busses and taxis.
Not 1 person from the visitor centre asked if we were ok, but were very clear that it was closing.

Rail enthusiasts dream. A narrow gauge heritage railway that takes you for an 40 minute-ish ride up the mountains around emerald lake. Came here a few years ago when this was a tiny venue. This has blossomed to a well appointed tourist attraction. In the summer there are beautiful views around the mountain and trestle bridges and you can sit with feet dangling out of the windows. In the wintertime things get quite a little colder, but for the steamies this is still a fun adventure. There is a decent size visitor center with hearty food and information about the area. At a choice dates in the winter there is a train of lights event where everything is beautifully lit up. Definitely a must come attraction for people with a love of steam trains.
