The Simson Historic Area is a patch of bushland which runs alongside the Maryborough-Dunolly Road. It has been heavily explored by gold diggers, as is evidenced by the countless mine holes scattered densely throughout the area.

There is a 4WD road/walking track winding through, access from Simson Road W. Be careful when walking that you don't trip or fall, as the ground is very uneven.

Learn more about the early days of the diggings at Maryborough.
