THE Shire of Kalamunda has teamed up with Kalamunda and Districts Historical Society to create a self-guided culture and heritage walk trail brochure and map.
The map highlights the buildings and sites of the Kalamunda township with photos and text revealing hidden histories and images.
The trail will launch on July 15 and starts at the Zigzag Cultural Centre. Shire chief executive Rhonda Hardy said the trail was a great way to gain insight into the history and heritage of the local area.
"Congratulations to Gay Bridgement and the members of the Kalamunda and Districts Historical Society whose passion and enthusiasm made this project come to life," she said.
