Created using rusted iron, metal scraps, and natural materials, the trail brings to life rural scenes from the 1800s when the area west of Lockhart was a vast sheep station.

Built over several years by the local community with the skilled craftsmanship of farm art sculptor Stuart Spragg, the ever-growing display features settlers, stockmen, drovers, and the iconic 'Swaggy', alongside sheep, kangaroos, farm dogs, and brolgas. Each sculpture captures the spirit of pioneering life and offers visitors a unique glimpse into the region's pastoral heritage.

The walk is well worth your time, and a camera is essential to capture these stunning artworks. Parking is conveniently available adjacent to the Lockhart Motel.
