This historic town, just an hour’s drive from the city has always attracted a great deal of interest.
First and foremost, the train buffs amongst us, just love visiting the railway station, which is currently the home of the Hotham Valley Tourist Railway, not to mention the current project overseeing the redevelopment  and revitalisation of the railway station and surrounds.
There are numerous beautiful old buildings and historic sites for those who like to revisit the past and lots of information to support these visits.
 
Pinjarra is set in the rural area of the state and so, as you drive through, you will see lots of peaceful farming country, and enjoy the relaxing sight of animals grazing in the lush paddocks, not to mention the chance to buy some farm fresh produce at the farm gate.
 
Set on the banks of that grand old lady, the Murray River, Pinjarra has paid homage to this watercourse with the building of two distinctive bridges over the watercourse: that set right on the Harvest Highway and the suspension bridge, that has scared and charmed visitors to the town for many a long year.
Pinjarra boasts lots of trails and walks for those who like to explore and, of course, there are many opportunities to indulge in whether you are in a relaxing mood, or feeling like some physical exercise!!
 
Other things to see and do include horse riding and exploring the numerous bridle trails, wandering and browsing through the shops in the townsite and enjoying a meal or snack in the various eateries. Pinjarra has a series of markets happening at various localities about the town, check the Visitor Centre or the Shire of Murray website: www.murray.wa.gov.au for dates, times and localities.

Pinjarra is on  Highway 20, an alternative route to the South West of Western Australia. Escape the hustle and bustle of the freeway and enjoy the country towns of the South Western Highway.
