This tiny village which was established for cedar-getters in the late 19th century is now nationally famous for its annual classical music festival. Held in the historic Tyalgum Hall, this sturdy timber structure, complete with corrugated iron roof, has excellent acoustics (barring rain!).
Dairying, coffee and cattle are the industries, with eco-tourism developing, thanks to the many nearby national parks and Mt Warning. Local accommodation includes the hotel and guesthouses.
