Visiting Zeehan today, it is difficult to imagine that it was once a booming mining centre with a population of approximately 10,000. The West Coast Pioneers Memorial Museum in the main street is a popular must-see attraction for visitors to the area and there are plenty of old mining relics outside town including smelters and old mine sites.
