Heatherlie Quarry

30 min to 45 min

Starting from Heatherlie Quarry Car Park, Ledcourt, this return walk takes you to Heatherlie Quarry and back. This is a historical walk that can be quite educational and is relatively short, and it is considered one of the greatest depictions of traditional quarrying methods for cutting stone. The stones for the construction of certain buildings, such as the state library and the Parliament house in Melbourne was mined in this area in the 19th century. There are certain remains of the buildings and the equipment that were used for the mining operations. You might still want to bring plenty of water with you during summer days as there is not a lot of shade in the area.
