Donnybrook is home to the biggest free entry childrens' fun park in Australia. 
Shire of Donnybrook-Balingup
Local industries in the shire include sandstone quarrying and a strong agricultural sector, notably apple and stone fruit orchards in and around the township of Donnybrook.
Its central location to the adjacent areas of Bunbury, Capel, Collie and Greenbushes makes the shire an attractive lifestyle option.
Tourism is also rapidly becoming an important industry, with many local attractions including the scenic areas of the Blackwood River Valley, State forests and the Glen Mervyn Dam.
Owing to the generousity of an anonymous community benefactor Donnybrook now also boasts having the 'Biggest Free Entry Fun Park' in Australia, a major drawcard for family outings.
