It lies 29.2 km north-west of Goulburn, NSW (from Goulburn, NSW: bearing 324°T), and is situated 11.5 km south-east of Crookwell. The terrain here is a study in gentle slopes and broad valleys, softened by the enduring presence of hardy eucalypts and the occasional scattering of introduced pines that stand like sentinels against the horizon. In the late afternoon, the light often takes on a burnished quality, gilding the sparse grasses and casting long, reaching shadows that lend a quiet dignity to the scene. The air itself carries the faint, dry scent of sun-baked soil and the fainter, sweeter perfume of wild herbs, a subtle fragrance that speaks of the land's enduring character.
Historically, Pejar’s story is woven into the pastoral traditions of the region, a place where sheep and cattle have long been the backbone of its economy, their grazing shaping the very contours of the land. This connection to the soil is evident in the enduring presence of old farmhouses and woolsheds, quiet monuments to generations of hard work and resilience. The local economy, while still anchored in agriculture, has seen a slow diversification, with a growing appreciation for the natural beauty of Pejar attracting a different kind of traveller seeking an escape from the clamour of busier centres. The nearby waterways, though not grand rivers, provide life and sustenance, their quiet flow a constant murmur beneath the wide expanse of the sky, a subtle soundtrack to the enduring life of Pejar.
