Serpentine is located 55 kilometres south-southeast of Perth, 7 kilometres
south of Mundijong on the south western railway line near the
Serpentine River.
The town has a steadily growing population of about 800 residents and is a stop on the Australind passenger train from Perth to Bunbury.
The surrounding area which has a total population of about 18,000, provides opportunities to enjoy a country lifestyle, with farms, orchards and historic country towns containing historic buildings which house museums and heritage collections, plus arts and crafts displays and tea gardens. The spectacular rural settings have inspired many artists to establish homes and studios within the area.
Located on the Darling Scarp, the nearby Serpentine National Park contains beautiful waterfalls which cascade over a sheer granite face near bushwalking trails.
The National Park covers 4,300 hectares, and a 500 metre walk trail located alongside the river leads to the falls and to picnic areas where barbecues and public toilets are available.
The steep slopes of the river valley create a stunning landscape which contains many different species of birds and animals. Birds including red-capped parrots, western rosellas, red-tailed and white-tailed black-cockatoos and yellow robins, plus kangaroos, wallabies and possums can all be found within the park.
