Southern Mallee District Council - Discover Murray
Pinnaroo
 

Pinnaroo is the gateway from Victoria to the unique Mallee landscape and an ideal place to break the journey along the Mallee Highway. It links the South-East and the Riverland along with Victoria to the Murray...it's the hub of the Mallee.

Pinnaroo is a bustling service town and an interesting stop. The town was settled in the early 1900's and has an amazing railway heritage. Today Pinnaroo has a pleasant range of shops, a motel, pubs, and caravan park.

Agriculture is the main industry and the surrounding rolling landscape and excellent underground water have created a prosperous irrigation district with potatoes, carrots, onions, olives and pistachios as the main crops. Traditional cereal crops such as wheat and barley, are the major source of income for the dry-land farmer.

Pinnaroo is the gateway to the unique natural mallee landscape, and nearby Karte Conservation Park is easily reached by car. Wildflowers are abundant in spring, and there is a picnic spot and an interesting walking trail (there are no 4WD tracks in Karte). The Scorpion Springs Conservation Park, part of Ngarkat Conservation Park, is just to the south of Pinnaroo and is a wonderful spot to explore by 4WD.
