Spend time in Glen Innes Highlands country and it is easy to forget you are in the 21st century. 

The town centre contains over 50 heritage-listed buildings and more in our villages Emmaville, Deepwater and Glencoe, there is lots to explore. The Showgrounds are a beautifully preserved example of 19th century pavilions and grand stands. 

Many locals are keeping traditional crafts alive. Some of our traditional crafters give you the opportunity to watch them at work, or learn for yourself. 

We’re home to several collectable books stores with close to a quarter of a million books in stock. 

And with a spare morning or afternoon dare to enter and get absorbed in our rich and quirky history at our museums.
