Bowral and surrounds are known for its eclectic mix of boutiques, galleries, antique/vintage stores, cafés, award winning wineries, country markets, National parks & gardens, museums, and golf courses.

Mount Gibraltar Trachyte Quarries Complex is a heritage-listed former stone quarry on Mount Gibraltar, Bowral.

Follow in the footsteps of the Bowral Trachyte quarrymen, on the walk-up Cliff Street, running next to the cottage, and discover the heritage listed history, and enjoy the scenic panoramic views from the lookouts.

Six distinct quarry locations within what is now Mount Gibraltar Reserve were used consistently for the 100 years from 1886-1986 and reflect an important aspect of Bowral’s industrial history. Trachyte was used in many heritage buildings and monuments across the state, including the residence of our next-door neighbour.

Mount Gibraltar is an iconic landmark of special significance and is also the highest point between Sydney and Canberra.
