Situated 12km south from Kondinin on Sloan Road. Surveyor general John Septimus Roe was the first European to have visited Yeerakine Rock, camping there on September 22nd 1848. From the top of the rock outcrop he could plan his route ahead, and his party was grateful for the good water they found there. Today, you can enjoy the expansive views from the summit – and you can appreciate the workmanship in the rock catchment scheme established in 1927 to provide water for Kondinin.
To commemorate the ANZAC centenary, a Light Horse Memorial silhouette statue has been erected on the rock from which dawn ANZAC services are held to honour those members of the Light Horse Brigade from the local area who didn’t return from the First World War.
