You’ll find the Australian Axeman’s Hall of Fame on the famous Bell’s Parade in Latrobe, on the banks of the River Mersey. It’s totally worth finding during a trip to north west Tasmania.

Chop Chop: Australian Axeman’s Hall of Fame
The Australian Axeman’s Hall of Fame is quite a unique attraction with a surprising amount of memorabilia. You really need to check out the trophy cabinet… it’s astounding. If you want some insight into the world of champion woodchoppers, this is definitely the place to go.

The Latrobe venue incorporates a little cafe and a Sunday market (although some of the stalls appear to stay inside permanently). Visit Axeman’s Makers Market on Facebook for more information about that.
