Whilst only a small village, it is the centre of activity for the surrounding agricultural region. The main street is formally a portion of the Armidale to Coffs Harbour Road (The Waterfall Way), which now bypasses the village. This view shows a portion of the main street. | |

A major event on the community calendar is held around the middle of September each year. This is the annual Wood Expo where there is much to see and do with the entertainment arising from rural based occupations such as Sheep Dog Trials, Hay Stacking, Post Cutting and many, many more events for all ages. Click on the image below for more photos of the Wood Expo.

Less than a kilometre from the village is the magnificent Wollomombi Falls and Gorge. It is hard to belive that this type of country could be a part of what appears to be a gently undulating hill country. The Wollomombi Falls are one of the highest in Australia and during rain periods, give the visitor a magnificient spectacle. Click on the image below for more photos of these spectacular falls.
