TranzAlpine Train Journey
The train takes a dramatic route through numerous tunnels and across towering viaducts. The scenery takes in small hidden lakes and valleys along with and majestic mountain peaks. Depending on the time of year, you can be surrounded by snow or bare cliffs bleached in the summer sun. The two hour train trip passes through the contrasting landscapes of the mountains, foothills and plains and you arrive back in Christchurch with plenty of memories of an unforgettable day. During the winter months due to shorter daylight hours the latter portion of the train journey may be in darkness. At Christchurch you are met at the railway station and taken back to your hotel accommodation. |
