Discover the Garfield Water Wheel's impressive stone foundations, remnants of one of the world's largest water wheels, once powering the Garfield Mine's quartz crushing battery. Constructed in 1887, this 22-meter diameter wheel was a marvel of its time. Explore the Garfield Mine Walk (500m circuit) and Garfield Bush Walk (400m circuit), both featuring gentle hills and interpretive signs. Dogs on leashes are welcome; please take your rubbish home. Access is via an unsealed road suitable for 2WD vehicles or by foot/bike along the Goldfields Track. Nearby, longer self-guided walks lead to sites like the Monster Meeting Site and Pennyweight Flat Cemetery.
