Description
The Manjimup Timber and Heritage Park, centrally located within the Manjimup town site, highlights the region’s logging heritage. Set on 10 hectares of natural landscaped and grassed picnic areas are the State Timber Museum, Age of Steam Museum, historic hamlet with period buildings and exhibits, and a full-size replica fire lookout tower. The Snorting Lizzy and the Saw Pit provides a wonderful insight to the technology and techniques of days of the past, while a timber museum filled with memorabilia will captivate all visitors
In addition to the many historic static displays relating to the early era of timber and steam the park also hosts the Manjimup Woodturners Association and a local blacksmith, bringing home the strong links of timber and steel to the region’s history.
The Manjimup Timber and Heritage Park provides an experience in discovering the area’s rich and colourful history with an insight of how the Lower South West region was developed by the early pioneers of major industries. Surrounded by a stand of significant trees found within the region, the Manjimup Timber and Heritage Park will take you on a journey to a time past, when a special breed of people worked to forge a prosperous future for the Manjimup district.
