See the striking replica Poppet Head and Neeld's Hut and learn about the early gold mining days of West Wyalong and Wyalong. Interpretive panels reveal stories from the district's past, while other features include a replica malleefowl nest, metal junk art and information about the local eucalyptus oil industry.
