L ocated along the Wheatbelt Way self-drive route, the Shire of Trayning consists of the three townships of Kununoppin, Trayning, and Yelbeni and is home to 300 people with a distinct focus on agriculture. The area is named after Trayning Well, the Aboriginal name of a nearby water source located on the old Goomalling to the Eastern Goldfields. It was first recorded by a surveyor in 1892 and allegedly derives from white man’s interpretation of the Aboriginal word ‘dur-iring’ meaning ‘snake calling in the grass near a campfire’.
