Bunbury - Western Australia
TOUR THE SOUTH WEST IN COMFORT WITH :
Many people start their exploration of the area from the old railway station which now houses the Visitor Centre and the bus depot. Although the original building was burned down, the current structure dates from 1904 and is an excellent example of architecture of the period.
As with many places, Bunbury's heritage architecture is being spoiled by the development of modern buildings (monuments to official stupidity), but the Stirling Street Heritage Precinct remains largely intact. Little has changed here since the early 1900s.
Leschenault Homestead is one of the oldest houses in Bunbury and was constructed over a period of years from 1844 to 1874. Early construction consisted of wattle, newspapers and whitewash with pit sawn timber. Despite the importance of this structure it remains in private hands and is not open to the public.
There are many historically (if not architecturally) significant buildings in the area including King Cottage Museum and the rather striking lighthouse which guards the basalt rocks near Rocky Point. The lighthouse dates from 1959 but a join about 10 meters up indicates where new construction work was done on 1971. The light sits 25 meters above the ground and has a range of 27 kilometres. Other buildings of historic interest are: Former Boys School, Stephen and Arthur Sts. 1885. Residency, Stirling and Moore Sts. 1904. Rose Hotel, Victoria and Wellington Sts. 1865. Old Police Station, Stephen and Wittenoom Sts. 1905.
One of the most unusual features of the state's entire south west are the mangroves which sit very close to the centre of Bunbury. The mangrove stand is quite large and is the only one you will find south of Shark Bay many miles to the north.

Mundijong - Western Australia
Mundijong is a centre for dairy cattle, beef, cheese making and horse breeding.
Located near the South West Highway not far from the major centre of Rockingham, it is becoming a popular place to live as it still retains much of the original country charm. Sadly with more people moving into the area this is something that will gradually be lost.

Wedge Island, Western Australia: escape to the Turquoise Coast
Wedge Island is a shack settlement nestled in the dunes about 150kms north of Perth, and slightly south of Cervantes, WA. While there is an actual island that goes by this name, the term ‘Wedge’ is used to describe the surrounding area of huge sand dunes and miles of relatively empty beaches. The area used to be only accessible by 4WD via a rough track that wound through the dunes, whereas now the new bitumen Indian Ocean Drive passes very close and a spur road connects to the settlement. Whether this development is a good or bad thing depends on your perspective. It’s quite possible and indeed likely to be able to have a huge portion of beach to yourself, whether for surfing, kitesurfing, swimming, fishing or snorkeling. Dolphins and seals can be spotted in the clear waters. Although dirt bikes and unlicenced offroad vehicles have been banned due to regular fatalities, it’s still possible to get in some ‘hooning’ if you use your imagination…

Goomalling
Goomalling township is situated in the Central Wheat belt area of Western Australia, 132km north east of Perth.
The name was derived from the Koomal Possum which inhabited the area in abundance when the district was first established. Now known as 'Place of the silver grey possum.' Goomalling was also called 'Coomarin' or 'Coomallyn'. The current name was first used by Alfred Hillman in 1846.
The present population of the Shire (as opposed to just the town) is approximately 1200. The district produces several varieties of wheat, lupins, wool, beef, cattle, pigs, fat lambs etc.
The Goomalling Historical Society has placed sign posts on the old school sites within the Shire - many can be spotted on the road verges.
Information of the local heritage trail is available from the Telecentre or Caravan Park. The walk points out places of historical significance around the town site of Goomalling.
Although only a small town with limited shopping facilities, Goomalling is a very nice place to stop and relax for a few days and it is fortunate in being at the centre of a number of other towns that can be reached in a series of days trips.
Suggested day trips from Goomalling:
1. From Goomalling you can head north to Wongan Hills and then travel east to Cadoux, south to Dowerin and back to your starting point.
2. Travel south west to Toodyay and then you can chose to go south to Clackline, then follow the Great Eastern Highway either west to Chidlow and north to Noble Falls before returning via Toodyay again, or you can turn east to Northam and then north to Jennacubbine and back to Goomalling.
3. The last tour is south east to Meckering then along the Great Eastern Highway through Cunderdin and Tammin and nearby Hunt's Well before turning north to Wyalkatchem and then returning via Dowerin.
Each of these trips is on sealed roads and will take you to a number of interesting places and covers a wide range of different terrain, ranging from thick forest around Chidlow to salt lake country near Cadoux and along the Goldfields Water Scheme.
The caravan park is one of the best shire parks in the state and is run by a very friendly and helpful couple. There is also an excellent hardware store just over the railway line (on the Dowerin road) which is (in general) cheaper than the hardware stores in Northam.
Goomalling is a wonderful example of good old fashioned country hospitality and town pride.
