Byford - Perth

Only thirty minutes southeast of Perth on the South West Highway, Byford is in the Serpentine Jarrahdale district. Set amongst picturesque forests and farmland, the town is a true depiction of Western Australia's country lifestyle.

Byford is a growing town with many services available for the traveller including galleries and tea rooms, a tourist information bay, tavern, supermarket and bakery.

Some of the old buildings house heritage and museum collections, arts and crafts and tea gardens.

The breathtaking scenery and clean, fresh air around the many forests, parks, rivers and other natural attractions offer the perfect location for a barbecue or bushwalk.

Along with Byford the neighbouring towns of Mundijong, Jarrahdale and Serpentine offer some of Western Australia's most popular parks, art galleries, restaurants, wineries and wildlife.
