It lies 19.7 km east-north-east of Gosnells, WA (from Gosnells, WA: bearing 77°T), and is situated 14.9 km east-south-east of Lesmurdie.

Sunlight, filtering through the broad leaves of jarrah and marri trees, paints shifting patterns on the rich, red earth, and the quiet hum of insects forms a constant, unobtrusive soundtrack to the day. The winding roads that thread through Pickering Brook are often bordered by moss-covered stone walls, remnants of an older time, and the occasional flash of crimson from a bottlebrush bush adds a vibrant splash of colour against the deep greens and russets of the land.
The history of Pickering Brook is intrinsically linked to the rich soils and dependable rainfall that have long supported agriculture, a legacy that continues to shape its local economy today. Early settlers, drawn by the promise of fertile land, established orchards that became the lifeblood of the community, and the distinctive character of Pickering Brook was forged in the hard work of cultivating these fruits. While the timber industry once played a significant role, the focus has largely shifted to horticulture, with apples, pears, and stone fruits still flourishing, alongside a growing number of vineyards producing cool-climate wines. The rhythm of Pickering Brook is one of seasonal cycles, of blossoms in spring and bountiful harvests in summer, a pace that invites a contemplative appreciation for the land and its enduring generosity.
