Venue
The Swan View Station and Tunnel are located in the Swan View Heritage Trail area, within the John Forrest National Park precinct, just 30 minutes from Perth.
Built in the late 1800s as part of the Eastern Railway, the abandoned tunnel and disused station sit hidden in the bushland, creating a naturally eerie backdrop. With its dark passageway, echoing sounds, and tragic history, the tunnel is one of Western Australia’s most atmospheric paranormal hotspots.
Guests will meet at the trail entrance before being guided to the historic site, where the investigation begins.
