The City of Fremantle invites you to complete this five to 10-minute survey, which allows you to have your say on the future upgrade of the North Fremantle Heritage Trail.

Project background

The North Fremantle Heritage Trail (the Trail), developed during the National Bicentennial Project in 1988, set out to commemorate our shared history. A statewide network of heritage trails unfolded, showcasing Western Australia's natural and cultural treasures. Crafted with the local community, the City of Fremantle (the City) and conservation groups, the Trail thrived and was powered by dedicated volunteers. Today, as we stand at the crossroads of time, the trail's heritage signage needs renewal. Join us to revitalise and enhance the Trail.

Why are we engaging?

The North Fremantle community actively engages and celebrates the area's rich history. The refreshing of the Trail will ensure that new residents and visitors to North Fremantle can learn about the area. 

As you undertake this engagement, we encourage you to consider the following: What untold stories are absent from our narrative? What subjects or locations would you like to explore deeper along the trail? Your insight will help shape the future richness of our heritage exploration.

In addition, The City of Fremantle acknowledges the Whadjuk people as the Traditional Owners of the greater Fremantle/Walyalup area. We recognise that the Trail signage installed in 2004 may not have adhered to the procedural standards we uphold today. Consequently, the City is fully committed to renewing the signage and gaining a deeper understanding of the cultural significance of this land for the Whadjuk people via engagement.
