Discover Woodanilling

Woodanilling offers plenty of ideas for a stay: walks that provide insights into local history, a park with play and recreation facilities, and venues for tennis, hockey and cricket. This makes the town appealing to anyone who likes to fill their days with a variety of activities. When choosing holiday accommodation in Woodanilling, you can consider which of these aspects of the town best suits your travel plans.

Discover history on a walk

The Prime Ministers’ Pathway passes signs about the history of Australia’s prime ministers since Federation. If you’re interested in political history, you can use the walk to learn about the people featured and the period since Federation along the way. The signs give the route a clear theme and make it a distinctive idea for your stay.

The Woodanilling Heritage Walk offers a different historical perspective. Opened in 2008, it consists of 13 signs along a short route around the town centre. The stops divide the information into individual sections, allowing you to take in the town’s history step by step. If you enjoy spending time outdoors and are also interested in the history of a place, this walk brings those interests together.

Centenary Park: playground and outdoor break

Centenary Park has an adventure playground with play equipment, as well as a skatepark area. This gives children different ways to play and be active; the skatepark area offers an activity distinct from the play equipment. Families can factor these options into their day’s plans without limiting a visit to the park to just one kind of recreation.

The park also has an electric barbecue available for free public use. If you’re planning a break outdoors, you can include the barbecue as part of your visit to the park. Across from Centenary Park stands a Salmon Gum more than 34 metres tall. Its height is a distinctive feature of the local landscape and adds the sight of an exceptionally large tree to the park’s recreational offerings.

Sporting opportunities

The Woodanilling Recreation Precinct has tennis courts and a field for hockey and cricket. The facilities offer different options for visitors interested in sport: tennis is played on the courts, while the field is used for hockey and cricket. When choosing activities, you can consider which sport would interest your travel group.

Getting around during your stay

Woodanilling is served by TransWA bus services, so you can take these into account when planning your journey. The Woodanilling Store stocks basic groceries, takeaway coffee and light snacks. It’s a convenient place for a few essentials, a coffee or a light bite. The selection is focused on these items.
