HORNSBY REGION is a great place to be! There’s something for everyone … The best thing about welcoming visitors to our picturesque region is that there is always a sight, a scene, a taste, a tour, a festival, a foreshore, a trail, a tide, a sunset, a sunrise, a view, a vista that will totally captivate, relax and entrance even the most hardened soul. Tucked away on our waterway foreshores are villages waiting to be explored, breathtaking vistas to be had from towering mountain lookouts, bushland trails to be discovered by bike or on foot and local produce, including seafood, like no other. You can shop in our malls, follow winding roads to ferries which crisscross the mighty Hawkesbury and its tributaries, hire out a houseboat or tinny, picnic or camp under the stars, soak up the atmosphere in our historic pubs, pick your own produce from our farms, stay in hotel style or sleep in rustic sheep station bungalows. The Hornsby Region is not only famous for its Waterways and National Parks, but is fast becoming renown for its abundance of Markets and Festivals. Hornsby Mall and its surrounding suburbs are home to a variety of boutique and charity markets, an antiques fair, our famous woodchop festival, Festival of the Arts, the Bushland Country festival, Christmas Spectacular, Australia Day celebrations, weekly Organic Produce markets – in fact there is something to delight every member of your family, from the ankle-biters to the thirty-somethings, from the grey nomads to the wise elders. We invite you to take a trip to the Hornsby Region … stay awhile … drink in our atmosphere … and return home refreshed … Enjoy!
