Heppner Gardens
Parks and Gardens
Step into history at Heppner Gardens, a beautiful tribute to the pioneering spirit of Waikerie. Originally a large stone yard for the stone mason Rudy Heppner, this historic spot was transformed into a lush garden, blending natural beauty with the town’s legacy. From 1930, Rudy’s family shaped the area, later selling it to the local council, which cultivated the gardens into the
vibrant space you see today.
Heppner Gardens was named after Rudy and Ida as a heartfelt homage to Waikerie’s past and their dedication to weeding, clearing, and maintaining the area before council took over the
maintenance.
Take a peaceful walk through history, relax, and feel the pride of Waikerie’s early settlers. Make Heppner Gardens a memorable stop on your visit to Waikerie, where heritage and beauty intertwine.
