Mundaring District Museum - Hoof Prints in the Hills
Exhibition finishes Thursday 22 February
Since 1830 when exploration parties, accompanied by pack-horses, first ventured over Western Australia’s Darling Range in search of greener pastures, horses’ hoofprints have made a mark on the Hills’ landscape. Whether used for ploughing, warfare, transportation, entertainment or therapy, horses have been integral in shaping and enriching the Shire of Mundaring’s past and present.
This exhibition, presented by Mundaring and Hills Historical Society, celebrates the horse, and the many and varied ways humans have interacted with these magnificent animals over the years.
Open Mon-Fri 9am-4pm, Sat 9.30am-4pm, Sun 10am-2.30pm. Closed New Year's Day.
The Old School (co-located with Mundaring Visitor Centre), 7225 Great Eastern Highway, Mundaring.
