The city’s leafy heart has been growing - literally - in recent years. The Peel Street beautification project has seen the creation of paved walkways, welcome seating, palm trees, inviting street cafes and a large range of interesting stores to attract the casual browser or the serious shopper.
Day trips from Tamworth can take you all over this lovely part of the world, from Manilla - Australia’s premier site for hang gliding and paragliding to Nundle - where the trout are always tastier!
