Harvey Region

The inland route from Perth to  Bunbury  takes in Harvey and the surrounding green farmlands, home to an impressive range of boutique and family-owned wineries, breweries and distilleries, each with its own unique charms.

Don’t miss a visit to the Boola Bidi Dreaming Centre in the Stirling Gardens precinct on the banks of the Harvey River. Browse the wide range of products or take part in an Aboriginal cultural experience on Bindjareb Noongar Country, including cultural ceremonies, guided walk tours, bush food and medicine workshops, artefact and tool making and Noongar language lessons.

One of the town’s main attractions is Stirling Cottage, which was originally built on the banks of the Harvey River by the first Governor of Western Australia, Governor Stirling. The cottage was lived in by many pioneering farming families, but most famously was the home of May Gibbs, author of beloved children’s storybook characters, Snugglepot and Cuddlepie.

Many of the big food guys are here, including Harvey Beef, Brownes Dairy and Harvey Fresh. To the east, the Darling Scarp and its ruggedly beautiful jarrah forest, lush greenery and natural waterways are an adventure playground with spectacular views. Water-lovers can head west to experience the Harvey Region’s 42 kilometres of virtually untouched coastline.

FOOD EXPERIENCES

A visit to the Harvey Region wouldn’t be complete without tasting award-winning cheeses, Harvey oranges, locally made crafts and preserves and visiting many award-winning family wineries to sample locally grown Chardonnay and Shiraz. Of course, you haven’t had the full Harvey orange experience until you’ve climbed the Big Orange at Harvey River Estate . This 14-metre tower sits high above the beautiful orchards and is a great way to take in the region’s magnificent views.

TRACKS, TRAILS AND DRIVES

For the road-trippers and adventurers out there, the Harvey Region has no shortage of tracks, trails and drives for you to explore. Hike the stunning Wildflower Ridge Walk off Honeymoon Road, admire work by local Noongar artists on a guided tour with Boola Bidi Dreaming Centre along the Noongar Kaartdijin Bidee art walk, or stroll around Lake Josephine in Yalgorup National Park – a picturesque lake that turns bright pink in winter thanks to the Red Samphire blooms.

Want to get off-road ? Drive your 4WD straight onto the sand at Myalup Beach, Belvidere Beach or Buffalo Beach. Keen MTB riders will love the Harvey Region section of the famous Munda Biddi Trail – the world’s longest continuous off-road cycling track. Jump on at Logue Brook and set off on your adventure!

ACCOMMODATION AND CAMPING

Camping is popular all year round in the Harvey Region (especially at the Leschenault Peninsula Conservation Park) and wet winter weather can’t stop the fun. Lake Brockman Tourist Park , on the shores of Logue Brook Dam and surrounded by the beautiful state forest, has a range of cabins available – as well as private glamping tents with lake views!

Head to the beach to take in ocean views right from your doorstep. Myalup Beach Caravan Park, Binningup Beach Caravan Park, and Australind Tourist Park are all great places to set up if you want quick access to the water and the true coastal experience. Or, take to the sky for a unique getaway at Binningup Treehouse Eco Retreat – where you’re sure to be greeted by some of the friendly birds that live in the peppermint tree surrounds.

Top things to see and do

Harvey Dam 

Pack a picnic and head to the massive Harvey Dam. With multiple barbeques, walking trails and a playground for the kids, the dam is a great place to spend an afternoon. Trout and perch fishing are also popular at the dam between September and May, but note that you’ll need a valid fishing license.

Harvey Heritage Walk Trail

Starting near the Harvey Tourist Bureau, the Harvey Heritage Trail is an easy, 6.5 kilometre walk that takes you past notable historical buildings and sites within the Harvey township. On the walk, you’ll pass the Harvey River, Stirling Cottage (which you can read more about below) and the Korijekup Estate. You can retrieve a printed map and guide from the visitor centre, or pop into each building along the way to learn about its historical relevance.

Stirling Cottage

One of Harvey’s earliest inhabitants was May Gibbs; creator of the Snugglepot and Cuddlepie book series. May lived in Stirling Cottage with her family in the 1880’s, and was believed to draw inspiration for her stories from her time in Harvey. Today, the cottage is a popular tearoom overlooking a beautifully-landscaped Heritage Gardens – complete with a mini orchard, 19th century style fountain and an enchanting secret garden. After a bite to eat and a walk through the garden, stop in at the neighbouring visitor centre to learn more about May Gibb’s time in this quaint corner of the South West .

Bridges Walk

Accessed via the Logue Brook Dam, the three-kilometre looped Bridges Walk is a great way to explore the region's luscious jarrah forests. There are interpretative signs along the way to provide information about the former mill town of Hoffman that it passes through. There are some gorgeous spots for a picnic, so bring food (and your camera) along.

Harvey Cheese

The family owned and operated Harvey Cheese is one of Harvey’s most prolific gourmet food producers. Utilising time-honoured methods, the company handcrafts batches of creamy, fresh batches of cheese – and luckily for visitors, they offer tastings at their factory just a few minutes from the Harvey townsite. Head cheesemaker Robert St Duke also offers cheese-making classes onsite, where participants can learn about pasteurising, practice with cheese-making equipment and even make their own cheese to take home with them.

Lake Brockman Tourist Park

Just 10 minutes north of Harvey lies the Lake Brockman Tourist Park; a bustling spot best known for its picturesque lakeside campsites. Situated beside the banks of the Logue Brook Dam, the park provides great access for canoeing, swimming, trout fishing and marron catching. The lake’s tent sites, caravan spots and cabins are known to book out fast, so be sure to reserve your spot before you set off.

Getting around

The township is small and pedestrian-friendly, but to get around in both Harvey and the neighbouring Ferguson Valley region, use your car. There are quite a few mountain biking trails and hiking paths (such as the Bibbulmun Track) that pass through Harvey, so bring gear with you if you’d like to use them.

What to pack

Wear light casual clothes in spring and summer, and pack some light outerwear for autumn. Harvey can be prone to frost in cooler months, so pack plenty of warm layers if you’re visiting in winter. Suitable footwear is recommended no matter the time of year you visit, as many of the walking trails and attractions cross through sections of forest.

Travelling safely

The highway from Perth to Harvey is in excellent condition, but some forest tracks within Harvey and the Ferguson Valley are unpaved. The region’s hills and bends can often make visibility difficult, so be sure to drive slowly. Here are more of our long distance driving tips .

Lovers of May Gibbs, author and illustrator of the children’s classic Snugglepot and Cuddlepie stories, will be enchanted by the display at the visitor centre, celebrating her work that’s believed to have been inspired by her stay at the original Stirling Cottage.

Fill your own picnic basket and head for one of the many beauty spots – including the wildflower picnic site, Stirling Dam, Harvey Dam, Logue Brook Dam and Lake Brockman.

The clear waters of Harvey Dam, Logue Brook Dam and Lake Brockman are the top choices for those who love to get on the water.

They also produce 30% of Australia’s total aluminium production (544,000 tonnes per year). Alcoa has trained over 1100 West Australian trades people through it’s apprentice program. This represents a $200 million investment in apprentice training for W.A. Since 1997, Alcoa has trained over 110 local apprentices at Wagerup refinery and 20 at the Willowdale mine.

The Wagerup Alumina Refinery has been a part of the Western Australian community since it began it’s operations in 1984. Today, the refinery has the capacity to produce 2.6 million tonnes of alumina from bauxite mined at Willowdale. This ore is transported by conveyor and refined to produce smelter grade alumina which in turn is transported by rail to the port for export to aluminum smelters around the world.

The Wagerup refinery is the most environmentally advanced alumina refinery in the world, with the application of advanced technology contributing to recent improvements in environmental management. Already for every dollar earned by Alcoa, 80 cents stays in Australia, contributing around $1 billion each year to W.A’s economy. The Wagerup refinery spends more than $44 million in local communities each year. Wagerup is the future for Alcoa’s three-refinery system in Western Australia which is among the most technologically advanced in the world, with annual production of 7.8 million tonnes of alumina.

Simcoa Operations

Simcoa Operations Pty Ltd is a fully, integrated silicon smelting operation located in the Kemerton Industrial Park, south west of Harvey, Western Australia and is AUSTRALIA’S ONLY SILICON PRODUCER.

Harvey Water

Harvey Water is a private irrigators’ cooperative (formerly known as South West Irrigation) which delivers water to irrigators via a gravity pipe and channel system which it operates, maintains and improves. It is located about 100km south of Perth in Western Australia.

The irrigation season runs from October to April. The Harvey Water Irrigation Area is relatively unique among Australian schemes because it is entirely gravity fed. This is possible because the water is sourced from a large number of dams relative to the area served, the land area served is narrow compared to it’s length and there are relatively steep grades across the width. Due to the scheme not being able to supply all properties at once, a daily allocation system is used to meet individual farmers needs while maximizing the efficiency of the distribution system and minimizing water wastage.

Things to see and do.

One of WA’s large icons. The ‘Big Orange’ gets a fresh new look and re-opened on the 19th July 2008.

Harvey’s landmark the ‘Big Orange’ has been fully restored to its former glory and placed on a steel structure 17m high overlooking the orchards of Harvey Fresh on Third Street. The steel structure has viewing deck which also features some Harvey History . A staircase offers easy access into the Big Orange. The ‘Big Orange’ can be entered via the cellar door at the Harvey River Bridge Estate winery. Gold coin donations given to enter the orange will be given to Telethon. Harvey Fresh has been a long-time and strong supporter of this worthy cause. The investment in the landmark has been well over $250,000 and Harvey Fresh believes it will add tourism value as a gateway to the South-West.

Back in the mid 1980’s, a small tourist park was built on the outskirts of Harvey and the ‘Big Orange’ was perched on the roof of the building next to the South West Highway. Unfortunately the tourist park eventually closed down and the ‘Big Orange’ fell into disrepair.

In 2004, Harvey Fresh purchased the Big Orange because the company believed – because of its poor condition – it did not provide a good impression for visitors entering the beautiful town of Harvey . The Big Orange was removed and under police escort was transferred to the Harvey Fresh site along the Harvey River in Third Street, Harvey.

Harvey Fresh is a truly 100 per cent WA owned and operated business.

Fun Things to do in Harvey WA (2024)

Last Updated on 24 July 2024 by Ariana Svenson

If you are looking for fun things to do in Harvey WA then look no further.  We just spent an awesome 3 day getaway at Logue Brook Dam and got to explore the Harvey attractions.  Using the Lake Brockman Tourist Park as a base we loved exploring the pretty Harvey region of Western Australia.  We also spent some time at Waroona, Brunswick Junction and Myalup during our stay.

In fact, Harvey is only 45 minutes’ drive from Bunbury city, so if you wanted to you could always drop into some of the funky murals or awesome playground if you are looking to travel further afield.  Harvey town is 140km from Perth CBD, and under 2 hours’ drive.

You could definitely make the Harvey and Waroona area a day trip from Perth, or a day trip from the nearby Ferguson Valley.  Should you decide to use that as a base instead – for inspiration why not check out  The Best Ferguson Valley Accommodation to Rest and Recharge and  A Guide to the Luscious Ferguson Valley Restaurants, Wineries and Breweries .

Disclosure: Through my site there are links to affiliates, which means that I might receive commission if you buy something after clicking them. This costs you no more, and you definitely don’t pay extra. However, I do get a small amount which contributes to the upkeep of this blog. Thanks so much for all of your support. We hope you have a ball in Western Australia!

What is the Best Time to Visit Harvey WA?

Harvey is definitely the beginning of the lush South West agricultural area, the food bowl of Western Australia, and it is an extraordinarily pretty area to visit year round.  While you drive down South West highway you will see the rolling hills of the Darling  Scarp to your left (the east) while the flat paddocks are filled with black and white cows, or miles of hay bales, depending on the season.

Summer is a wonderful time to enjoy the aquatic playgrounds at Logue Brook Dam on Lake Brockman, the Harvey Dam or some of the other dams in the area.  We enjoyed paddling, swimming, and all the beautiful blue water.  This is definitely some of the top things to do in Harvey WA!

Harvey’s annual agricultural show is held in April.  It is a great place to enjoy a good old fashioned show with lots of prize animals on display.  As the months get cooler, so too do the hills get greener.  The area around Harvey and Brunswick is truly stunning in winter.  While the Harvey area has some good wines, the nearby Ferguson Valley wine region is renowned for its full-bodied wine varieties.  You will definitely be able to enjoy the Harvey area walks in the jarrah forest in the cooler months.  In our opinion Harvey is a great year round destination.

Ha Ve Cheese (Harvey Cheese)

On the main South West highway at Wokalup you can’t miss Harvey Cheese with its huge signs claiming the sexiest ice-cream in the South West, as well as resident camels and emus in the front paddock.  We appreciated the kid friendly toy boxes (not large, but entertaining) which gave us time to explore the gift shop with lots of local products and then head on over to the Cheese Tasting!

Ha Ve Cheese is handcrafted.  It is delicious with a creamy flavour, and a soft, moist texture.  The range includes soft white mould, blue vein, washed rind, Romano, savoury and fetta.  (We particularly liked the Romano and Ash Camembert!)  Apart from the generous cheese tastings and ice-cream, you can also get tea, coffee, cake & ice-cream available in the cafe.

Australia’s Only Big Orange

The Quirky Big Orange in Harvey adds to our list of Australian big things (you can read about more of them at Australian man made landmarks ).  Located in the beautiful Harvey Fresh orchards, the Big Orange is a 10 metre tower featuring a 62 steps climb to a viewing platform inside the orange.  The Big Orange sits above the Harvey Fresh orchards.  Open 7 days a week from 10am-4pm (excluding major public holidays).  This is such a fun experience for the kids who won’t believe they’re inside a giant orange.  Entry is a gold coin donation.  Definitely put this on your list of things to do in Harvey WA.

To get into the Big Orange you enter through the Harvey River Estate Winery.  Note, you can’t get orange juice at the Harvey Fresh orchards (I had promised the kids you could!)

Logue Brook Dam on Lake Brockman

For those that love the water, especially fresh water, the Logue brook dam on Lake Brockman is a fantastic aquatic playground.  It offers a plethora of activities on offer including swimming, fishing canoeing and kayaking.  Don’t expect serenity though!  It’s also a place designated water ski area and there is a lot of horsepower on display.  Many high-powered ski boats towing water skiers and wake boarders, as well as the exceptionally loud jet skis!  We found a quiet spot that was not deep enough for the boats and had a lovely time swimming and kayaking.

Note – If you are staying at Lake Brockman Tourist Park, don’t try to swim down near the boat launch area.  Instead, go through the Lake Brockman permanent privately owned shacks down to the ‘back’ side of the tourist park, close to the Glamping tents.  Here the dam doesn’t slope as deeply in, and the water is clear and calm.

The Harvey Dam & the Gibb’s Pool Amphitheatre is a wonderful place for a family outing in the South West with boardwalks, a kid’s playground, gazebos and picnic tables and free gas barbeques.  The dam also boasts several bush walks and great areas for bird watching at Benger Swamp and the Leschenault Inlet.  This is one of the great things to do in Harvey WA.

Harvey Dam welcomes canoes and kayaks.  However, no fuel-powered boats or crafts are allowed on the water.  This means that electric boats are allowed, and also water-skiers.  There is strictly NO camping allowed anywhere around the dam.

Harvey Wildflower Picnic Site Walk

This gorgeous walk was a highlight of our time in Harvey.  Located only 2.5kms off South Western Highway on Honeymoon Road at Cookernup, there was no sign post off the road.  It is a steep road to the right on a sharp bend.  There is no trailhead information, just an old fashioned sign stating it is the “Wildflower Picnic Site”.

We followed the grass tree walk markers to the East (toward Harvey Dam).  This meant we went downhill first and were quickly rewarded with stunning views over the backwaters of the Harvey Dam and forests.  We visited in December and there were still two species of wildflower in full colour.  However, as you pass through several large granite outcrops you can see that it would be filled with wildflowers in spring.  No toilet facilities.  Dog friendly (on a lead).

Harvey Visitor Centre & May Gibbs Collection

Quoted on many sites as the spot to get insider information to the Harvey area, plus a chance to view the May Gibbs collection, the QR code on the door informed that the Centre is now permanently closed due to falling visitor numbers (December 2021).

However, we would strongly recommend a stop to wander through the gardens.  Even on a hot summer’s day they were cool and refreshing and a wonderful surprise.

Stirling Cottage Heritage Gardens

A replica of the Stirling Cottage evokes the mid 1800’s when the first Governor of Western Australia, Governor Stirling, selected 12,800 acres of fertile land in Harvey and called it the ‘Harvey River Settlement’.   Today, the reconstructed/ replica Stirling Cottage is located a small distance from the original site.  It features landscaped Heritage Gardens, a 19th century style fountain, an enchanting secret garden.

In 1885-86, May Gibbs, famous Australian author and the creator of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie, lived in the original Stirling cottage with her family.  It’s said that she drew much of her inspiration for her stories and illustrations from the two years she spent exploring the Australian bush with her brothers.

Unfortunately, ‘Stirling Cottage Kitchen’ tearooms were sadly closed on the day we visited.  It looked like the perfect spot for lunch or afternoon tea on the balcony overlooking the river.

Harvey Internment Camp Memorial Shrine

We enjoyed our short stop at the Internment Camp Memorial Shrine in Harvey and would recommend anyone driving past to stop.  We explained to the children that despite many people living in the Harvey area for many years, when Australia went to war with Hitler and Mussolini in World War two, all German and Italian migrants were categorized as enemy aliens, and interned in camps, such as the Camp #11 in  Harvey, with about 1000 internees.  This was an excellent discussion about differences and how history teaches us many lessons.

One of the prisoners instigated the construction of an altar made of stone, depicting the Catholic faith.  The shrine stood for many years in a paddock, and in 1992 enclosed in a chapel in 1992.  It is believed to be the only road side shrine of its kind in Australia.

In the past to access the inside of the Internment Camp Memorial Shrine, you could get a key from the Harvey Visitor Centre.  With that centre currently closed their shire is discussing how people might access it.

Harvey Main Street Flowering Jacarandas

If you love the purple Jacaranda, then you will be rewarded when travelling around Harvey and Brunswick in early summer.  The Jacaranda are flowering everywhere.  We popped into Harvey for some food at the local IGA and were thrilled with the flower display.  Don’t miss the sofa artwork or murals in the main street.

Speaking of wildflowers, check out our  Where to Find the Best Wildflowers in Western Australia .

Harvey Region Art Trail

The Harvey Region features some stunning public art works.  All created by local artists or community groups, just waiting to be discovered!  More info at the website here .

They are not the most obvious murals in the days of massive murals, and we particularly liked the one heading into Brunswick but there was no spot to pull over so we didn’t get a picture.

Discover the Harvey Wineries

Harvey river estate winery (at the big orange).

It seems many folk head to the Harvey River Estate Winery to see the Big Orange but end up tasting and taking home some wines after

If the kids need a refill before or after climbing the Orange, cookies are available and coffee for the driver!

Vineyard 28 (Yarloop)

We love the distinctive Vineyard 28 logo, and have planned a stop here forever.  It’s located just off the Forrest Highway – approx. 5km south of Preston Beach in the Geographe Wine Region. Vineyard 28 is small family run winery and showcases Italian wine varieties.  Dog friendly.

Fifth Estate Wines (Harvey)

Another boutique vineyard in the Geographe wine region, Fifth Estate Wines Harvey produces Chardonnay, Rosé, Shiraz and Tempranillo varieties.

• Moojelup Farm (Cookernup)
• Myalup Vine

Old South Coast Brewery, Myalup

Just 20 minutes’ drive from Harvey, the Old South Coast Brewery is definitely on the “in” list at the moment.  We’ve visited twice and both times it was busy.  It seems that everyone agrees that it’s the perfect location.  Located half way between Mandurah and Bunbury; a great place for good food, delicious craft beers and an afternoon out.

As soon as you drive in through the olive grove it feels kid friendly.  There is a massive grassed area where there were plenty of kids playing ball or footy.  There are lots of places to sit – on the deck or in the undercover beer garden overlooking the kid’s playground, plus the inside area.  Dogs are welcome on the grassed area but not inside.

Western Australia Mini Golf Course

Who doesn’t love a themed Mini Golf Course?  The one at the Old Coast Brewery is a beauty (or bloody bewdy!).  Each hole features a different WA attraction.  You’ll find Wave Rock , Mount Augustus, the Pinnacles and more.

It takes about 1 hour to complete all 18 holes, depending on how many groups are in front of you.  You can’t book in advance, so it’s first in best dressed.  The price for a Family Group (2021) is $50 (includes 2 adults and up to 3 children).

The Crooked Carrot, Myalup

One of the most popular spots between Perth and Bunbury is the now famous Crooked Carrot.  It now has become an insanely popular place to stop on a road trip down south.  If you don’t mind crowds (and you don’t mind a wait) then this is a great place for you!  On the other hand, if you are lucky there might not be too many people and the kids will play for hours on the fantastic play equipment that is suitable for lots of different ages.

With lots of seating in different spots, you can spread out and find a spot you like.  There is lots of good food here, from cakes to coffees, traditional road trip food like toasties right through to pooh emoji cupcakes!

There is a reason why the Crooked Carrot is so popular!  It’s because it serves up great coffee, good food and the playground is awesome!

Nearby – Things to do in Harvey WA

Brunswick junction.

We love the Friesian cow street signs in Brunswick Junction!  If you are looking for big things, then why not break for a moment at the Cow on the Corner (its right on the main road, you can’t miss it).  Daisy is 2 metres long and 1.530 metres high! Definitely adding to your list of photos with big things – and other Harvey attractions!

Langford Hill Riding Farm

This is an extremely unique experience in the Australian bush if you wish to spend some time with a keen horse woman and her gorgeous horses.  We found Sue to be very professional.  Her beautiful thoroughbreds are clearly well cared for and well-schooled.

She speaks her mind.  So, if you don’t like honesty then perhaps this might not suit you.  My daughter has been gaining experience.  She loved the bush ride through the trees and was fine with the strict approach.  Don’t consider this if you don’t have some kind of horse riding experience.

Drakesbrook Weir

Just outside of Waroona, Drakesbrook Weir is a lovely place to swim, canoe or fish.  With a pontoon for swimmers, lawns, shaded tables and free gas barbecues and public toilets, the Drakesbrook Weir is a lovely place for a family barbeque or picnic.  There is a short walk on an accessible path to the noisy scrub bird memorial.  I definitely learned something – I thought that the noisy scrub bird was only found on the south coast near Albany.  Dogs are not allowed on lawn and beach sand areas.

Accommodation in Harvey WA – Different Options

Lake Brockman Tourist Park

One of the best options for accommodation in Harvey WA is the Lake Brockman Tourist Park.  Well known as a water sport hub, and its lakeside camping, the Lake Brockman Tourist Park is located on the Logue Brook Dam.  There are tent spots, caravans, as well as family cabins and adult’s only glamping tents.  If you want to read more about the glamping options, find it in  The Best Luxury Camping and Perth Glamping Ideas!

The park provides great access for canoeing, swimming, trout fishing and marron catching.  While Lake Brockman Tourist Park is just 10 minutes from Harvey, it feels like you are a world away!  If you are looking for camping in Harvey WA, then you might like to check out the Logue Brook Campsite, run by Parks and Wildlife.

Rural service centre which promotes itself as "A Breath of Fresh Air"

Harvey is a rural service centre surrounded by rich agricultural lands which are covered with orchards and market gardens and where sheep, beef and dairy cattle are grazed. The combination of fields and paddocks kept green by irrigation and the wildflowers on the surrounding hills led to the area being dubbed the 'Land of Milk and Honey' before it became 'A Breath of Fresh Air'. A major irrigation system was developed in the 1930s preventing Harvey from experiencing floods and opening up the area to dairying, beef and horticultural pursuits. Citrus fruit, table and wine grapes, and agricultural products are continually developing within the Shire.

Harvey, which is 36 m above sea level, is located 138 km south of Perth via the Kwinana Freeway and South Western Highway.

Origin of Name

There are two possible explanations for the name. One source claims that the first European to explore the area was a British army officer, Major Harvey, who surveyed the district in 1834. Another source claims that town was named after the Harvey River which, in turn, was named by Governor Stirling after Rear Admiral Sir John Harvey RN, Commander in Chief of the West Indies Station in 1818. Governor Stirling was in command of the Brazen at the time and Harvey recommended him for promotion. From the 1830's the Harvey area was known as "Korijekup" the Aboriginal word meaning "The place of the Red Tailed Black Cockatoo." By the 1890's the Korijekup Estate became known as the Harvey Estate and as the township took shape in the 1890s it became known as Harvey.

Things to See and Do

Harvey Heritage Trail Starting from the Harvey Visitor Information Centre, and covering a total of 6.5 km (it will take around 2 hours), the Harvey Heritage Trail is an easy walk, mainly on concrete paths, that takes you past historical buildings of interest.   A detailed map is available from the visitor centre. Check out https://trailswa.com.au/trails/harvey-heritage-trail/print for more information. Highlights of the Heritage Trail include:

Stirling Cottage Located in the gardens behind the Visitor Centre is Stirling Cottage - a   replica of a cottage built in the 1850's on land owned by Sir James Stirling near the Harvey River. The original cottage was home to May Gibbs, creator of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie, during 1885-1886. It is believed that she was inspired by her stay in Harvey. The signage outside the cottage notes: "May along with brothers Bertie and Ivan would take long walks through the bush turning over stones, examining flowers and bird nests and swimming in the river pools. As there was no school in the area, the children were given lessons by their mother at home. May displayed an early talent for drawing and was encourage by her father, himself a talented artist. In later years May described her time in Harvey as 'the two happiest years' of her life." Features of the original cottage were hexagonal paving blocks fitted together as flooring, "pit sawn" Jarrah walls, and a sheoak shingled roof. The kitchen was at the rear of the cottage under a separate roof and the men's quarters, the stables and a blacksmith's shop were nearby. In 1994 a replica of the original Stirling's Cottage was built. The sign outside the cottage points out that it was "Modelled on the original Stirling Cottage ... featured the shingled roof, jarrah walls and hexagonal paving blocks of the original."

Harvey Internment Camp Memorial Shrine Located as part of the gardens around the town's Visitor Centre, the Harvey Internment Camp Memorial Shrine is a memorial to the 1,000 Italian internees who were housed in an internment camp at Harvey. The camp was purpose built in 1940 for £80,000. The internees filled their idle hours growing vegetables to feed both themselves and the soldiers guarding them. They also built a commemorative shrine in a paddock within the camp using locally quarried stone and concrete. It was designed by Guiseppe Raneri and constructed by Giovanni Boschetti and Gaetano Tomba. After the internees departed, the monument was protected by barbed wire and in 1992 a shrine was opened. The key to the shrine is held at the Visitor Centre. For more information check out https://monumentaustralia.org.au/themes/conflict/ww2/display/60588-internment-camp-memorial-shrine .

Harvey River Diversion and Drainage Scheme A sign near the Visitor Centre explains the importance of the Harvey River to the development of the town and the district. It notes: "The Harvey River ... rises in the Darling Scarp and flows in a north westerly direction draining into the southern end of the Harvey Estuary, via the Peel Inlet to the sea. "The Harvey River formerly meandered across the Swan Coastal Plain through wet flats and swamps. "To drain this fertile plain, which is surrounded by a number of small streams, a main drain for the river was dug in the 1930s. Known as the Harvey Diversion, this drain diverts most of the river's water directly into the sea, west of Harvey at Myalup. "The section of river bordering these gardens (the gardens near the Visitor Centre) was rejuvenated in 1998 under the "New Work Opportunities" scheme. The new pristine waterway has become home to a variety of bird and water life and reflects what the river was probably like at the time of settlement. "From 1930 on when the Depression was hurting so many, one of the biggest community employment programs imaginable began in Harvey. This was a Government sponsored plan to divert the Harvey River to an outlet at the ocean near Myalup, which removed the fear of flooding downstream and brought valuable agricultural land into production. No less than 2,500 men were camped west of Harvey and at times 3,500 men lived in the camps at Myalup and nearby Stonehouse. "To learn more about the Diversion follow the trail, a memorial to the thousands of men who worked on the Harvey River Diversion and Drainage Scheme has been placed beside the Diversion in Baker Street."

Harvey Railway Station Museum Located at 15 Harper Street, the Harvey Railway Station dates from 1893 when the Perth to Bunbury railway reached the town. It closed in 1987 and since then has been home to the museum. It is open on the 1st, 3rd and 5th Sunday of every month from 2.00 pm - 4.00 pm. Tel: (08) 9729 1685.

Harvey Mosaics In recent times the towns and villages of the area have featured impressive mosaics at their entrances. Myalup, Binningup, Clifton Park, Cookernup and Harvey all have impressive mosaics. The Harvey main street also boasts large murals depicting Harvey country lifestyle and history. There is detailed information on each mosaic at https://www.harveyvisitorcentre.com.au/listing/mosaics-and-murals . Typical of the detail is its explanation of "Mural 5 - Harvey Vision "A Harvey Mainstreet project which brings colour and messages of historical and cultural significance into the main street of Harvey. Located in the centre of town, Harvey Vision celebrates who we are, through exploring our unique history, highlighting some of the things that are important to us as a community. "The images, animals and people portrayed in these panels have all been drawn from the local area. Special care has been taken to represent details of the local species of flora. Each section of the mural draws comparisons between the old and new ways of doing things, reflecting the progression of these industries that still play such an important part in the local economy. Each panel is 6m long and 2m high and the paintings are acrylic with some mosaic sections. "Local Artist ‘Anthea’ started the mural in 2000 and completed it in 2010; each section took 3 to 4 months to complete and the total cost was $25,000. Four Harvey Mainstreet murals were completed in 2002 after 2 years. The first panel depicts Harvey's early settlement and timber industry featuring the cedar colours of greens, browns and yellows. The second focuses on the dairy and beef industries, the third features Harvey's citrus, water, irrigation, horticultural and viticultural industry. Each panel is 6m long and 2m high and painted in acrylic with some mosaic sections."

Other Attractions in the Area

Harvey Dam Located on Weir Road, the Harvey Dam, and further on the Stirling Dam, offer walkways, landscaped recreational areas, free electric BBQs, playground facilities, shady gazebo’s, picnic tables and toilets. The area's agricultural potential was developed after 1916 when the Harvey Weir was built. The combination of the Harvey Weir, the first irrigation system in Western Australia, and the Stirling Reservoir, ensured the agricultural prosperity of the region. Irrigation channels ran from the Harvey Dam which now has a capacity of 56 gigalitres and a catchment area of 126 square kilometres. Marron, trout and perch fishing are permitted only at the rear of the dam in the season with a permit. Check https://visitbunburygeographe.com.au/business/harvey-dam-and-amphitheatre for additional details.

Big Orange Located 2 km north of Harvey via Third Street, the Big Orange sits on a 10 metre tower with an additional 4 metre (62 steps) climb to a viewing platform inside the orange. For many years the 'Big Orange' was a focal point when you drove into Harvey. It sits above the Harvey Fresh orange orchards. It is possible to climb the Big Orange. Entry is a gold coin donation. It is open from 10.00 am - 4.00 pm. Check out https://harveyriverestate.com.au/our-cellar-door  for more details.

Bibbulmun Track - Harvey Access Point The Bibbulmun Track, which starts in Kalamunda in the north goes for more than 1,000 km south to Albany and passes near Harvey. There is an access point at Harvey and the overall distance from the Harvey Visitor Centre to the Long Gully trestle bridge (the Bibbulmun Track drop off point) is 49.4 km. The Long Gully trestle bridge was built in  1949 and was 128  metres long. Sadly it was destroyed in the Boddington  bushfire. The bridge provided the only viable crossing point of the Murray River for walkers on the Bibbulmum Track. A new state-of-the-art bridge,  built 12 km  downstream of the old bridge site in Lane Poole Reserve, was named Bilya Djena Bidi, an Aboriginal term for a '(swinging) river foot bridge'. The locally designed and built bridge spans 82 metres and includes two 12-metre towers that hold the bridge above the 100-year predicted flood level, enabling Bibbulmun Track walkers to safely cross the Murray River. It is the starting point if you are walking the section from Harvey to Collie. Look for the yellow triangular markers, symbolising the 'Waugul', the rainbow serpent of the Aboriginal Dreaming. There is important information and directions available at https://www.harveyvisitorcentre.com.au/listing/bibbulmun-track-harvey-access-point .

Wildflowers of Harvey Spectacular varieties of wildflowers can be seen in the spring in the Harvey Shire. There is a useful set of brochures including lists of the wildflowers in the area and a map which identifies all the key wildflower locations from Yarloop to Australind. See http://www.yarloopworkshops.com.au/ for the downloadable brochures. Click on the Wildflowers of Harvey section of the main page to access the downloads.

Best 12 Things to do in Harvey WA 2024: Locals Guide 🍊

As a local who has had the pleasure of visiting Harvey (Korijekup) on multiple occasions, I want to share my experience of Harvey. This place often slips under the radar of mainstream tourism but deserves recognition and exploration.

Top 12 Things to Do in Harvey
