The easy, flat stretch between Milawa and Oxley has been transformed into a vibrant open-air gallery featuring Harvest Trail, a playful sculpture series by Melbourne artist Beci Orpin.
Orpin's work brings the region's agricultural heritage to life through larger-than-life metal sculptures. Inspired by her personal connection to the High Country and developed through creative workshops with local primary school students, these installations celebrate local produce with a joyful, modern twist.
Pedal your way along the 6 kilometre trail and keep your eyes peeled for oversized tributes to local fare. In the heart of Milawa, a giant, sun-ripened raspberry makes for the perfect photo op before you explore the local area. As you continue, discover quirky mushroom huddles, olives, and the native Murnong Yam Daisy. For those who love a challenge, try to spot the secret garlic sculpture or the playful egg tucked beside the path.
Take a break at the Milawa Cheese Company and snap a selfie with the Big Cheese. The Harvest Trail is a part of the Murray to Mountains Rail Trail Enhancements Project, a project introducing a series of must-see moments designed to make the trail more engaging, accessible and shareable than ever before. The public art installations are part of a curated journey featuring world-class installations that celebrate local stories interpreted by Victorian artists.
