The "City Farmhouse" Olofstorp is a popular oasis for the whole family. There are cows, horses, a donkey, pigs, sheep, rabbits, cats, goats and chickens. It includes a health garden, an herb garden and a spice garden. In the area around Stadsbondgården, there are well-planned paths along Assarpsbäcken, opportunities for barbecues, and other activities.

Saddle up with the family and engage in the trail ride to Tombstone. Watch the western town coming to life as you ride down main street. Then venture through the 200-foot tunnel and view scenic waterfalls and an array of wildlife. Let their experienced guides and gentle horses take you on the 1-hour trail. Be sure to visit the free petting zoo afterwards.

It is an engineering marvel, the world's steepest steam-operated railway. This is Tasmania's West Coast Wilderness Railway, and it is 28 tonnes of special. Today, passengers are moved by the same locomotives that began the run from Queenstown back in 1896. They take a comfortable 16-kilometre run through the wildlands, uphill through spectacular landscapes and down to a place called Dubbill Barrill, with stops for a little gold panning and sightseeing. These locos were originally built to move copper ore for the Mount Lyell Mining and Railway Company, delivering the mine's deep riches out of a massive, landlocked deposit at Queenstown to the port of Strahan, and from there, to the world. And every passenger is greeted by one of the line's original workhorses, a 28-tonne steam locomotive that's ready to roll — and guaranteed to raise a smile.
