The Walhalla Tramway Bridge (also known as the 'Old Steel Bridge' or 'Poverty Point Bridge') is now fully restored and is open for visitors to enjoy the great walks from either Walhalla or Thomson River stations. Follow the Thomson River upstream on one side and return on the other. Look for remains of the old tramways and dry stone walling that once supported the timber tramway from Walhalla.
