About Moree
This major agricultural centre, located in the fertile Gwydir Valley, 607 km north-west of Sydney, is most famous for its hot artesian spas. The Moree Hot Artesian Pool, opened in 1895, attracts thousands of visitors annually who soak up the healing waters.
See the site of Moree's first store at Mary Brand Park and enjoy the Mediterranean-style climate while picnicking by a pleasant riverside park. The annual food festival, Moree on a Plate, held in May, showcases local produce, including regional wines, olives, oils, gourmet pastas, lamb, beef and yabbies.
Before you travel, find out about road conditions that may be affected by local flooding in this area.
