I explored the standing stones but my stay at GI was solely used as a base for exploring the Old Grafton Road before travelling back home. This road is currently closed so I had to tackle it from Glen Innis one afternoon, making it to The Mann River Nature Reserve and then made the long drive next day to Grafton to tackle it from that end. The tunnel was accessible from this side. Well worth it as the scenery was to die for. Meals were excellent at the Servicemens Club and diesel was priced exceptionally well for this trip.

Glen Innes is a great town to stop and relax.
Glen Innes is a great town to stop and relax. The park was beautiful, especially in May with the vibrant autumn colours. We visited the standing stones, enjoying a picnic lunch, coffee from the kiosk and the beautiful view overlooking the town.

The lookout with new skywalk provided wonderful views of the town and the beautiful countryside. The commentary was very good.
The standing stones were very interesting and the explanations were fabulous. The crofters house, new toilet block and garden area were fabulous. The area was well maintained and looked so nice.

Glen Innes has a beautiful country town feeling. It is easy to get around and there is lovely cafes, a health food shop and shopping opportunities ... The surroundings are lovely with lots of parks, fitness options as well as the annual gem show and the famous 'Standing Stones' a powerful Celtic healing ground with an annual Celtic festival in May.

Quaint little country town with plenty of character.
Quaint little country town with plenty of character.
We arrived late unfortunately and ordered take away at the local pizza/ kebab shop. Fresh and delicious but stay away from the BBQ sauce. It is sweet and makes it too much to finish the meal.
I had a falafel kebab, which was delicious!
Breakfast was at "The Local" which had great coffee, eggs benedict, granola and breaky burger. The locals are always up for a chat. Very friendly, just sadly we did not have enough time to explore further.
We had a very enjoyable stay. The cottage was comfortable and well located a few minutes drive from Glen Innes town centre. The outlook from the veranda across the local paddocks was lovely and the local birdlife was very pleasant to see and hear. The cottage was private but the owners were friendly and very helpful.
We really enjoyed our overnight stay at Gleninnes motel, very friendly welcome, and easy checkin. Room very clean and comfortable beds. Breakfast was excellent, a lovely continental breaky, very generous serves of cereal, yogurt fruits, toast etc.highly reccommend Glen Innes motel. ,
