Visitor Information Centres

Upper Hunter Shire has three accredited Visitor Information Centres (VICs) that are open 363 days per year. Each takes pride in providing up to date accommodation, attraction and area information. The Shire has four major events annually:

• Murrurundi King of the Ranges in February
• Scone & Upper Hunter Horse Festival in May
• Merriwa Festival of the Fleeces in June
• Aberdeen Highland Games in July

 The Shire’s diverse landscape, scenery and events make it the perfect place to visit for all the family.
