One of those engaging rural museums that could only be in Australia, this impressive complex honours the legendary axemen of the northwest. Most of the displays centre around competitive woodchopping and an examination of sustainable forestry. Also here is the Platypus Interpretation Centre , which sheds light on the breeding life and habits of this shy monotreme that's often spotted in the Mersey River just over the road.
There’s also a cafe for light meals. A Tasmanian Makers Market is held here every Sunday and Thursday.
