Desert Mounted Corps Memorial

Travel Guide - Large gum trees line the Avenue of Honour on Apex Drive - the road to the top of Mount Clarence. At the base of each tree is the name of a soldier lost at war. The Desert Mounted Corps Memorial, which stands at the end of a series of steps starting from the lower carpark of Mount Clarence, is a recast of the original statue erected at Suez in 1932. The granite blocks are the originals from Suez and bullet marks can still be seen on them. Mount Clarence is the site of Albany's Anzac Day dawn service on 25 April each year.
