Moree

Moree

Moree is a progressive and pretty town on the banks of the Gwydir and Mehi Rivers. At the junction of the Gwydir and Newell Highways, with regular air and rail services to Sydney 608km southeast, and Brisbane 473km to the northeast. Moree is well placed to serve as a major regional centre in an important farming and grazing area. With a population of 9,346, Moree is small enough to offer residents and visitors a relaxed lifestyle, and large enough to provide them with most of the goods and services they require. The town offers access to all the major banks, two large supermarkets, newsagencies, homewares stores, furniture and electrical stores, hardware and produce stores, a well-equipped hospital, an aged care facility, chemists, doctors, dentists, schools and childcare facilities, real estate and stock and station agencies, boutiques, a bookshop, a library and an art gallery, plenty of coffee shops, a nursery, a regional airport, hotels and motels, Rural Fire Service and State Emergency Services branches, lovely parks, excellent ovals, gyms and tennis courts, a fabulous golf course, an RSL Club and only two sets of traffic lights. Moree’s most famous attraction, however, is the Moree Artesian Aquatic Centre (MAAC), formerly known as the Moree Hot Artesian Pool Complex. The MAAC underwent a major redevelopment that will ensure it continues to entice patrons from far and wide for some time to come.
