About this place
What to expect
The Australind Heritage Trail, covering 29 heritage and history sites, beckons travellers to slow down and savour this historically rich region. The Leschenault Estuary and surrounding rivers have been home to the Elaap clan group of the Noongar Wardandi tribe, also known as the Yoongan Jarli Elaap (People of Elaap) and the Cultaa Yoongan Jarli (Mullet people), for more than 45,000 years. Established in the 1840s, Australind is also one of the State's first settled communities. Uncover colonial Western Australia heritage, from the town's connection with India for horse breeding, plans of a London-style city, and one of the smallest and oldest churches in Australia. Please note that some buildings and properties are privately owned and are not open to the public.
