About East Gippsland Rail Trail
The trail follows the route of the former Bairnsdale-Orbost railway. It was opened in 1916 to serve the agricultural and timber industry, and required numerous substantial bridges because of the nature of the terrain. Due to the decline in traffic and heavy operating costs, the line was closed in 1987 and the track infrastructure removed in 1994. Motorised vehicles are prohibited.
