Things to do in Hinds

Hinds is a hive of agricultural activity, so there's not a huge amount to see, however, you must stop at Hinds Classics at the Gas Station on the Main road and take a look at all the old classic cars that are in various states of work, it's fascinating.

Just north of the gas station on the corner of Isleworth Road and State highway one, there is a beautiful status of deer, symbolising the deer industry in the area. Find out more here

Pop into the Hinds Tavern for a bite to eat and chat with the locals.
