Further south the timber milling town of Manjimup has backpackers’ accommodation housed in the caravan park, and another 10 kms from town in viticulture and horticultural districts, a hotel, a hotel-motel, three motels and a guest house.
Budget priced meals are available from four outlets, two Chinese restaurants and two cafes while a-la-carte dining can be enjoyed at the motels. The customary counter meals are available at the Manjimup Hotel.
There are many tourist attractions in and around town including the timber park, which is very worthwhile visiting.
This is tall timber country and there is no better way to see the giant trees than to join the Forest Industries bus that has fully commentated visits to karri and jarrah regrowth forests, timber mills and scenic areas. Tours leave Manjimup Timber Park at 9.15 am on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
For those seeking something different, Manjimup Water Ski Park have boats and all equipment available for hire.
The lake is set amid a picturesque stud and commercial cattle property which has shelters, barbeques and a camping area.
There are many other attractions too numerous to mention and the local Tourist Bureau will be only too happy to provide full details.
