Glen Innes & Inverell

Bring home a sapphire you found yourself

This is Australia's sapphire country, and the gems aren't behind glass. Hire a sieve, pick a creek and fossick for your own — plenty of visitors leave with a stone in their pocket. Between digs, the high country delivers the strange and the ancient: a full ring of Celtic standing stones on a Glen Innes hilltop, World Heritage Gondwana rainforest in Washpool National Park, and granite lookouts over the gorges of Gibraltar Range. Crisp air, big skies and treasure underfoot. Some places just gleam.
