Like many tourism businesses on the Coast, Shantytown is struggling through covid restrictions affecting their income, and it does have an effect on how they operate. A skeleton crew of staff, and I guess a number of volunteers, keep this ticking along in difficult times. There is a vintage train ride through the bush to the sawmill, and you can have a crack at panning for gold (guaranteed that there is some to find in your pan!). Behind the stables is a walk through the bush up the hill, it takes a little longer due to track wash-outs (so there is an alternative track). Well worth the effort, the bush walk is beautiful and great for some time out. Try out the longdrop and the stocks! A look through the hospital gives a wonderful appreciation of modern medicine! Accessible steam engines for the enthusiasts - currently not running because of the high cost of coal combined with lack of income (covid again), but a diesel engine is still operating. An enjoyable few hours spent here.
