Things to See & Do

Tony & Diana have lived in the beautiful Glen Innes Highlands region for over 40 years and know it well. They are a wealth of local information on the activities you can do here and around the district when you stay with them. Here's just a few ideas ..

The Glen Innes Highlands region offers a range of pursuits from fossicking to fishing, hiking to history hunting and much more. 

On our doorstep we have several World Heritage Listed National Parks perfect for bushwalking, swimming or a picnic in the rainforest.

Within a short drive, you can fossick in some of the richest gemfields for sapphires, other gems and minerals.  

Stroll through Glen Innes’s town centre with its charming streetscape, specialty coffee shops and Heritage listed buildings.  To see them, take the "Heritage Buildings Walk" or one of the fascinating Tourist Drives. 

Throughout the year, the local region hosts a range of festivals and events. One of the major events is the Celtic Festival which celebrates the rich celtic history of our region and is held at the Australian Standing Stones (open all year), the official national monument to Australia’s Celtic pioneers.
