The East Coast Discovery Pass (ECDP) is the most flexible, easy and versatile way to discover the East coast of Australia by rail. With unlimited stopovers in one direction between Cairns and Melbourne (or vice versa), it’s your ticket to the east coast’s most popular destinations. No matter where you’re heading, your adventure begins the moment you board the train. Sit back, relax and watch the scenery go by, strike up a conversation with a fellow traveller, or get up and enjoy a meal onboard as you look forward to your next destination.
