The Warialda VIC is a new and modern building, toilets, a retail section, local produce and art. The VIC is also home to the famous Wells Gem and Mineral Collections, certainly well worth the look.

Warialda has a lot to offer the visitor and the locals alike. If you’re planning a stay or just passing through there are many things to help make your stay a memorable one. Depending on your interest, you will find something that suits just about any visitor.

For the artist there is the unique Ceramic Break Sculpture Park, an extremely interesting and different look at sculpture.

If you are interested in camping or bush walking Cranky Rock Nature Reserve is a must. A conglomerate of unusually placed granite boulders make up the spectacular Cranky Rock. A beautiful part of the world, you’ll find peace and tranquility from the moment you step from your car. Take a picnic and recharge your batteries. Cranky Rock is the perfect place to do it.

If history is your thing then you’ll love the old heritage listed buildings throughout Warialda, the courthouse, Convent and Carinda House, just to name a few. The Pioneer Cemetery is a popular place to visit, where many people come to trace their ancestors.

A recent addition to the list of attractions available in Warialda is the Warialda Soundtrails App. The app which can be downloaded to iphone or Androids is a walking tour of Warialda with stories, legends, sights and sounds of this fascinating little town. For those who don’t have a smart phone ipads can be borrowed from the Visitor Information Centre, just ask one of our friendly staff.
