Golden Pipeline Trails
The National Trust of Western Australia has also developed a number of trails linked to the 650 km Golden Pipeline drive trail between Mundaring and Kalgoorlie.
Weaving romantic stories of Western Australia's Gold Rush era with tales of hardship, water shortages and human endeavour, the Golden Pipeline follows the water pipeline between Mundaring and the Goldfields.
The statistics about the pipeline are amazing. Few would realise that it is regarded as one of the world's greatest engineering feats and is the longest fresh water pipeline on earth. Still operating, it provides water to an area of 44 0000 square kilometres, 100 000 people and about six million sheep.
Now, this piece of WA history has been brought to life and made accessible to visitors through a series of walk and drive trails along its route including the The Weir Walk (1.9kms), The O’Connor Trail (5.3km) and the Kep Track.
