This park was named in honour of Alex Goudie a former Buln Buln Shire Councillor with a passion for nature. The native bushland behind the former old Drouin Butter Factory was named in his honour and established as park in 1956.

As part of the Australian Bicentennial Celebrations, thirty trees from different countries were planted to acknowledge the contributions made to the Shire by immigrants and First Nations Australians. After 30 years only 10 trees had survived. in 2020 the Friends of Drouin’s Trees instigated a renewal of the Trees of Nations and replacement trees were planted along with signs and other infrastructure to enhance the amenity of the park.

Walk from the parking area down through the Trees of Nations looking at the three interpretive signs along the way and check out the 50 trees which have been planted including the endangered local Strzelecki Gum planted by local Kurnai leader Cheryl Drayton. And check out the two donated Wollemi Pines making their home among the gum trees. Snake Gully at the east end is a biodiversity treasure.
