GUIDED TOURS THROUGH THE FOREST TO FINE WOOD

Do you belong to a social group or organisation that enjoys taking a day trip to somewhere incredibly interesting? The Forest Heritage Centre could be just the place you are looking for. Built from the local rammed earth in the shape of three gum leaves each representing a different aspect of the jarrah forest.

The Australian School of Fine Wood located in the largest leaf offers a two year full time Diploma of Art- Furniture Design course. Watching and talking to our students will give you an insight into the furniture designers and makers of tomorrow. Click for our educational tours.

The Jarrah forest is a place of great wonder, there is always something flowering. Forest Tours can be designed to show off the Jarrah and Marri forest at its flowering best in late winter and spring, when our orchids and australian native wildflowers are in full bloom.

The Yokine Binda wildflower trail established by our dedicated volunteers mark many of the flowering and interesting flora located on the trails.

Our forest guides can provide that special focus to suit your needs. A forest guided visit to an active jarrah saw mill will demonstrate the changes from our historic past. The Aboriginal trail unlocks some of the secrets from our indigenous heritage.

TO COMPLIMENT YOUR TOUR

Make it a ‘Day out in Dwellingup’ by combining your tour of the Forest Heritage Centre with a visit to the Visitor Information Centre, a ride on the historic Hotham Valley steam train or having a meal at either the Dwellingup Community Hotel, Dwellingup Café or Touch of Aroma. Cross the dam wall at South Dandalup dam. In and around Dwellingup you will find many picnic spots where you can sit and enjoy the peaceful Jarrah forest.
