Wakool Soldier Settlers Memorial Walk

Spreading out through the two small parks running from the Wakool Cenotaph at the meeting of Flinders, Cook and Dampier Streets is this wonderful community-driven walk.

The stroll commemorates the nation-building work of former service people who settled – and built industry – in local towns including Tulla, Tullakool, Merriginnie, Chowar and North Wakool and Wakool. The signage is detailed and heartfelt, telling personal stories.

There is wonderful detail along this very short walk, showcasing the community’s abiding respect for these brave trailblazers.
