The Australian countryside is unlike any other countryside. It’s well developed and sparsely populated. For miles and miles you won’t see a person but fear not, kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, and emus will accompany you throughout.

If you are travelling by road, the highways are in excellent condition. The whole bush area is lush green in winter and golden in summer, very scenic, and abundant with a humongous variety of flora and fauna.

If an outback holiday is what your heart craves then look no further, Australia has it all. It’s where you experience the real vastness and dramatic landscapes of Australia. Take stock of your life under the starry night or just bring out the kid in you, enjoying the beautiful camp sites and relishing the long drives.

​If you like laid back holidays and food is the main ingredient then Australia won’t disappoint you. Go wine tasting in Western Australia, or drop into any country pub and try one of their boutique beers. Experiment their amazing seafood, kangaroo steak, or experience going vegan in their farmers markets of organic fruit and vegetables, cheeses, and chocolates.

If you’re in the mood for history or want to get up-close with indigenous Australian culture, then Western Australia is the right place. Experience first-hand indigenous culture, dancing, art and cuisine. Bush survival skills are also often taught in regional areas, so ask around.

Many a visitor to Pingelly makes the trek out the Moorumbine Anglican Church, and the accompanying Heritage Trail. Nestled in picturesque farmland, you can reach the church by heading out of Pingelly, and following the signs to Wickepin. 

​An 8km drive out of town will take you past the emu farm. If you like wildlife photography, you can stop on the verge to take some photos. The emus are very curious and love to come over and have a look at what you're doing. 

A few kilometres past the emu farm you'll see the turn off to Moorumbine. It's very well signed, and easy to follow. Drive past a couple of cute cottages which double as guest houses, you'll be upon the Church and pretty little cemetery in no time. the Heritage Trail map is just inside the Church grounds. 

You'll find plenty of wild flowers here, and you're not too far from Tutanning Reserve (but you need to book for that tour).
