Darkan, the main administrative town in the Shire of West Arthur, is located on Coalfields Road, a main arterial route between the Southwest and the Albany Highway.

What do you do while your vehicle is recharging?

If you are travelling with children, there is a fantastic park in Railway Reserve on Burrowes St. It has playgrounds, trampolines, a pump track, a skate park, and open spaces for them to burn off some energy. Parents can sit and relax while watching them in the undercover BBQ shelter and enjoying freshly brewed coffee from the cafe, roadhouse, or hotel. Alternatively, if you are organised, why not bring a picnic or enjoy a BBQ while you wait?

The Heritage Walking Trail starts in the Railway Reserve and is for those interested in history and nature. You can find out more about the trail here.

Public toilets are available at the Information Bay on Coalfields Road.
