If you’re looking for a relaxed way to experience the heart of the Southern Forests, make a date with the Manjimup Fortnightly Markets at the beautiful Manjimup Heritage Park.

Held every two weeks, the markets bring together locals, visitors, makers, growers and small businesses for a celebration of community, creativity and country living. Set amongst the trees and open spaces of the Heritage Park, it’s the perfect place to spend a leisurely morning or afternoon exploring the stalls and soaking up the atmosphere.

From locally grown produce and delicious treats to handmade creations, plants, gifts and unique finds, there’s always something interesting to discover. Market day is an opportunity to meet the people behind the products, hear their stories and take home something that captures a little piece of Manjimup.

A taste of the Southern Forests

Manjimup is at the heart of one of Western Australia’s most productive agricultural and forest regions, and the markets provide a wonderful opportunity to discover the flavours of the area. Look out for fresh seasonal produce, locally made goodies and products inspired by the surrounding forests and farmland.

Grab a coffee or something tasty to eat, then take your time wandering between the stalls. Whether you’re a local catching up with friends or a visitor exploring the region, the relaxed market atmosphere makes it easy to slow down and enjoy the day.

More than just a market

The Manjimup Heritage Park adds another dimension to the experience. With its spacious setting and connection to the area’s history and natural environment, the park provides a great base for exploring Manjimup.

After browsing the markets, take some time to discover more of the town and surrounding Southern Forests. Visit local producers, explore the region’s food and wine experiences, take a scenic drive through towering karri country, or simply enjoy the peaceful pace of life in this beautiful corner of Western Australia.

The fortnightly markets are a reminder that some of the best travel experiences are found in the simple things — a conversation with a local maker, a freshly prepared treat, a handmade treasure or an unexpected discovery among the stalls.

Whether you’re planning a weekend in the Southern Forests or simply looking for something different to do, the Manjimup Fortnightly Markets are well worth adding to your itinerary.

Come for the markets, stay for the local flavours, heritage, forests and friendly community spirit. With something new to discover each market day, there’s always a reason to return.

Slow down, wander the stalls and discover the people, produce and creativity that make South West WA special.
