The Everlasting Cultural Trails are a new initiative developed by the Shire of Mullewa to promote the diverse range of tourism attractions within the area.
A total of 4.9 kilometres of pathways have been completed thus far, with Stage Two set to commence late in 2008.
Explore the breathtaking hinterland or fascinating townscape of Mullewa, by selecting an Everlasting Cultural Trail to wander at your leisure.
Wind your way through low rolling hills, across creek valleys and rocky ridges, or traverse the paths of early settlers, and take time to picture how the town grew from the passion of those before us.
The Bushland Trail truly highlights the esteemed qualities of the area with its rich natural features, and provides panoramic views across the scrub, into Mullewa.
The Rail-Loop Trail showcases Mullewa’s once-expansive rail precinct, a hub for trains travelling between Geraldton and Perth via Morawa, to the outback town of Wiluna.
The Town Heritage Walk allows visitors to experience the history of people and place on a leisurely stroll about town. Allow your mind to step back in time among the original buildings of the early 1900s.
The Wildflower Walk showcases the stunning flora that brings visitors from far and wide to see. The bush will come alive in late winter with dramatic carpets of pink, yellow and white Everlastings.
The Hawes Heritage Trail features 11 substantial interpretive nodes, each detailing a phase of Hawes’ inspiring life story. The Trail also features a number of large mosaics created by local Wajarri artists, as a tribute to the relationship between Hawes and the indigenous people of this area.
The historical and natural aspects of the trails capture the local indigenous and early settlers’ history, and give visitors a true insight into the early years of the blossoming rural town.
Be sure to drop into the Visitors Centre on Jose St for your free brochure and map to the trails. |
