Manjimup to Deanmill Heritage Trail

Starting from the car park on Giblett Street, Manjimup to Deanmill Heritage Trail offers a scenic journey along a historic rail line transformed into a versatile pathway. As part of the Munda Biddi Trail, this moderately flat route meanders through both bush and farmland, showcasing the natural beauty of the region. Commencing in Manjimup and concluding in Deanmill, the trail begins with a paved section before transitioning to gravel for the remainder of the journey. During spring, the landscape comes alive with a vibrant display of wildflowers, adding to the trail's allure. Once serving as the Manjimup – Deanmill Tramway, this route holds historical significance, linking a sawmill to the town for railway construction materials. Named after the mill's inaugural manager Alfred Dean, Deanmill remains a testament to the region's industrial past. Today, the trail offers an immersive experience through the magnificent Karri forest, with occasional hills providing a refreshing challenge amidst the tranquil surroundings. Let us begin by acknowledging the Bibbulmun people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
