Founded in 1811, this heritage-listed settlement offers a peaceful escape from city life, with a population of just over 2,900. Stroll along leafy streets lined with historic sandstone cottages, the iconic Pitt Town Bottle House, and the sandstone wharf where you can watch kayakers and fishermen. The surrounding countryside is perfect for cycling, picnics, and exploring the river by canoe. Visit in spring when the jacarandas bloom, or during the autumn markets. Despite its tiny size, Pitt Town has a handful of cafes, a general store, and a pub that serves classic Australian fare. The real draw here is the slow pace: enjoy the silence, the birdlife, and the sense of stepping back in time. It's also a great base for Hawkesbury Valley wineries and the historic towns of Windsor and Richmond.",[10,13,15],{"key":11,"value":12},"Police","000",{"key":14,"value":12},"Ambulance",{"key":16,"value":12},"Fire",[18,21,24,27,30,33,36,39,42,45,48,51],{"key":19,"value":20},"Do I need a visa to visit Australia?","Many nationalities can apply for an ETA or eVisitor visa online.
