About this place

The Pinnacles Desert Discovery lies in low heath at the edge of the yellow sands of the Pinnacles Desert.

A retail gallery stocks products that reflect the values of the area and toilet facilities are provided.

The building has been designed to blend with the surrounding environment and incorporates solar power, passive solar building design and rainwater collection. Just behind the visitor centre is the Pinnacles View Lookout.
