Penrith Valley Heritage Drive
For those interested in simultaneously discovering both the extraordinary beauty and historical significance of Penrith Valley, the Penrith Valley Heritage Drive offers visitors a full day of must see sights scattered throughout the region. Experience the urban and industrial areas of Penrith, St Marys and Emu Plains, as well as the picturesque rural settings of Castlereagh and Mulgoa as you follow the path of our pioneering settlers.
Begin your drive with a visit to the historic Mamre Homestead for a taste of early colonial life and a tour of the accompanying tearooms, restaurant, gift shop and plant nursery. Throughout the day, tour historic churches that not only continue to represent achievements in architectural design, but played fundamental roles in the spiritual and social development of the township of Penrith. Explore Penrith Regional Gallery, a diverse range of local museums, as well as Muru Mittigar Aboriginal Cultural and Education Centre. Trace the footsteps of our famous early explorers at Blaxland Crossing on the Nepean River and discover the people and places that have contributed so significantly to Australia’s past.
Whatever your interests, Penrith Valley Heritage Drive offers you a comprehensive guide to the colourful history of Penrith Valley.
