Busselton Heritage Trail

The Busselton Heritage Trail is a project of the Rotary Club of Busselton Geographe Bay. Developed and operated by club members, the trail has been recently upgraded to include a self-guided tour. By using your phone or mobile device you can log on to the trail’s website and access historical photos and heritage audio recordings at various sites along the trail.

The Heritage Trail walk begins at Railway House near the Busselton Jetty. Today, the Jetty is a popular tourist destination, and you can take a trip on the jetty train to the observatory. After the jetty, continue your discovery of the history of Busselton by walking along Queen Street to the Butter Factory Museum. The oldest of only seven known in the state, the Butter Factory is a good example of post WWI industrial architecture.

To access the tour, patrons purchase a 14-day subscription for $10. This then provides access to over 45 minutes of images and recordings that bring the city’s history to life.

All proceeds from the subscription sales are used for community projects.
