West Pennant Hills, Administrative division in The Hills District of Sydney, Australia

West Pennant Hills spans across 21 kilometers northwest of Sydney central business district, containing residential areas and commercial zones around Thompsons Corner.

The region originated in 1796 through a land grant to Andrew Thompson, leading to the establishment of a timber-sawing facility near present-day Thompsons Corner.

Cumberland State Forest and Koala Park Sanctuary offer natural spaces where residents and visitors connect with Australian wildlife and forest environments.

The suburb contains West Pennant Hills Public School, a Woolworths supermarket, and multiple restaurants near the Cherrybrook railway station for daily necessities.

The name originates from a flag pole used for signaling between Parramatta and the governor's residence, combined with the area's geographical features.

Location: The Hills Shire Council
