The Vietnam War Memorial Cherry Tree Walk is a powerful symbol of remembrance and respect. It honours Australian service personnel who died during the Vietnam War, holding deep significance for veterans, the local community, and visitors from across Australia.

The central monument features the names of the fallen etched within a circle of living plants, a symbolic wreath of life.

The Cherry Tree Walk stretches for roughly 1.6 kilometres. Planted along a shared pathway, 528 Taihaku cherry trees stand tall, each one a poignant tribute to a service member who died in the conflict (1962-1974).

Conservation Management Plan Development

As a significant cultural and historical landmark, Wingecarribee Shire Council is creating a Conservation Management Plan to ensure the memorial's lasting value for future generations. This plan will define the site's importance and outline strategies for managing change while preserving its core essence.

A draft Statement of Significance, outlining the memorial's value and guiding future decisions, is available in the Document Library on this page.
