About
Hidden away in the rolling hills of Northern Tasmania lies the enigmatic Tunnel, a tiny, now-quiet hamlet named after its most prominent feature—an abandoned train tunnel.
Constructed in the early 20th century as part of the railway connecting Launceston and Scottsdale, this tunnel was once a vital artery for transporting timber and other goods.
Today, it stands as a fascinating relic of Tasmania's industrial past, shrouded in nature.
Visitors who venture through its dark, cool passage are met with echoes of history, as moss and vines reclaim the walls, creating a serene yet eerie atmosphere that beckons to explorers and history enthusiasts alike.
